Customer Reviews

Lots of examples, very little depth
First of all, this book isn't very expensive. In fact, for me, shipping was almost twice as expensive as the book itself.

This is another one of those web design books that are full of example web designs. There is virtually no depth at all in the descriptions of the web designs, only a short sentence (in English, German and French) which describes what you can already see in the pictures. Sometimes the examples don't even make any sense, because the pictures are too small to see what the navigation consists of or the user interaction isn't clear enough.

I guess what I'm saying here is that I wouldn't recommend buying this book.
