Should I buy this book?

_9:47

Eric Meyer just came out with a new CSS book that is supposed to the the cat’s meow. It just came out on JUN 28, 2002 so most stores don’t even have it in stock yet (found out after calling all over).

I’ve never just bought a $45.00 book without looking at its content but i’m really tempted. What do you guys think? Should I get it or should I wait?

There are a couple other CSS books but I haven’t been all impressed with them. O’Reilly came out with one awhile ago but that one is rather old and just starts focusing on CSS2. I’m open to any other options but this new books seems rather good.

I went to Amazon’s site and checked the table of contents. Looks very comprehensive. I has 50 sample pages on the site. Below is the link that took me there. Check it out.

I broke down and bought it. Amazon.com had it for a Grand Total of $35.49 (that’s with Shipping & Handleing) and after looking at the table of contents I couldn’t hold myself from buying the book.

Thanks Dad for the research and link. I should be getting it in about 3-7 days. Hopefully much much sooner :-)
