Book

Sass for Web Designers (2013)

A straight forward introduction to Sass. And fairly short, about 120 pages, so I got through it in one afternoon. The book avoids getting bogged down in frameworks, but promotes using Sass as an extension of your existing CSS knowledge. This to me seems like a very sensible approach. I've read pl...

The Elements of Content Strategy (2011)

This book is not for people working in this field for more than a year or so. For them, there's really nothing new to learn. This book is mostly for those thinking that they need to publish content. If you want to learn what it is required to publish meaningful content on the web, in terms of peo...

Stratégie de contenu Web (2011)

First chapter is excellent. The question of what is "quality content" is nailed down quite well in a very satisfying way.Second chapter is ok, but doesn't really bring the material together that well. You get a bunch of ideas that don't coalesce as well as they should.Third chapter is the weake...

Desiging for Emotion (2011)

This book is an example of when brevity strikes back. This book, while brief and an enjoyable is lacking in substance. Emotional design or the topic of emotion and design is often tackled from a subjective perspective by known experts. These perspectives while interesting and often fresh are ofte...

Css3 Pour Les Web Designers (2000)

Another great book from A Book Apart. It's a short intro to what CSS3 we can safely use today--both the pros and cons. I've read all of Cederholm's other books and liked those just as much. He's great at showing simple demos that demonstrate the techniques he writes about. Also of note, I read th...

Mobile First (2011)

Luke Wrobewski presents a strong argument for designing for mobile devices first, as opposed to simply resizing a traditional website to fit mobile devices' smaller screens. User experience, approaching a mobile project with the expectation of having only half the user's attention means content-c...

Book

Html5 Pour Les Web Designers (2000)

I've read most of this book, and can comment that a) the content is very accessible to non-programmers, though b) knowing something about markup languages in general and the state of the world prior to HTML5 would be helpful c) the content is largely about reassuring web designers that HTML5 is o...

HTML5 for Web Designers (2010)

Jeremy does a good job at touching on key information such as obsolete tags, accessibility concerns, f...
