Summary: Superb book for web designers
Comment: Just read this book and found it a great source of enjoyment all the way through!, the writing style is great and very easy to follow, this book will leave you with new ideas to put into practice, as well as new ways to look at color, typography, and layout, all with great pictures to accompany the examples on the page. even though ive read it, its defiantly going to be by my side the next time I start to design a site.... well done!.

Summary: Help in making your sites look great!
Comment: There are many good books on the technology of creating effective websites but most give relatively little help in how to create the visual basis of your site. This book fills this need beautifully. I purchased this book midway through a college class in web graphics. It confirmed and expanded on what I was learning there.
If you really want to create sites that stand out visually this is a book you should have.

Summary: Basics of design I never considered...
Comment: This book dives into the very basics of design. Not web design... but the aspects of making a web design look good. This book will be a good starting point for making your designs look better... not just to you but to your visitors.
The only bad thing I'll say about this book is that it is a bit short. I would have liked to read more from this good book.
