First 30 pages are all you really need. - 2003-10-31
Reviewer Rating:
I'm a huge fan of McGovern, but this book isn't worth the money. You can actually read the first section of the book - the part I really loved - at his web site for free: www.gerrymcgovern.com. The "sample web style guide" at the end of the book is woefully underwritten. Buy CONTENT CRITICAL instead.

Almost Criminal - 2003-05-02
Reviewer Rating:
This book is next to useless as a web style guide. Of the 224 pages only the first 35 pages are devoted to the topic of style. The rest of the book is a glossary of terms with little practical use. Most of the material presented in this book is available on the web for free and in greater detail.

My first glance through the book was a disappointment. Two days later I gave it a second chance but it confirmed my first impression so I sent it back.

Incredibly bad printing quality - 2005-09-07
Reviewer Rating:
This author is highly recommended, but the printing quality is worse than from an extremely poor fax machine. I really don't care about the quality of the content as trying to read it would be unbearable. It is going back immediately.

Poor content, poor print quality . How'd this ever get published? - 2005-12-10
Reviewer Rating:
This book was useless to me, and also maddening because it purported to address issues with quality of content. I should have read the other reviews here and then steered clear of this book. The content is anemic: nothing of substance here. And the publication looks like someone took it to a copy shop and made a copy of a copy.

This book simply does not offer useful information or -- by virtue of content and presentation -- 'walk the talk' of the importance of quality content.

Same poor print quality on the original and replacement books I ordered! - 2006-05-21
Reviewer Rating:
Can't comment on the content because both the first and second copies I received were not legible. What happened at the printer's? No quality control check, apparently, before these books were shipped for sale.
