A couple of days ago I finished reading the book Bulletproof Web Design by Dan Cederholm, which turned out to be a gem that I will keep on my bookshelf. Even though this book is a bit on the slim side, it is packed with lots of great tips and tricks that need to be utilized more often. I just could not help myself while I was reading this book – I kept thinking that this book should be read especially by those people who still refuse to use CSS for website layout and prefer Tables.

This book is written in a concise and easy to understand language. It is laid out in a consistent manner. Each chapter starts out with one particular example, and then explains why this way is not as efficient, accessible, or bulletproof. After that, it goes into detailed explanation of how to recode it in a better way. Each chapter ends with a summary of covered material and several important bullet points to remember. The illustrations used in this book range from page close-ups to different 3D views of page elements. All of those seemingly simple aspects make this book better and a must have for a web developer.
