by David Hunter, Jeff Rafter, Joe Fawcett, Eric van der Vlist, Danny Ayers, Jon Duckett, Andrew Watt, Linda McKinnon
Average Customer Review: 3.5 stars based on 52 reviews.
Customer Review: Other than the fact that you can tell that the book was written by 5 different guys because of the the difference in writing styles between chapters, overall it is packed full of information and a handy reference.

XML in a Nutshell, Third Edition
by Elliotte Rusty Harold, W. Scott Means
Average Customer Review: 4 stars based on 14 reviews.
Customer Review: This book is by far the best book I've read on XML. Typical of O'Reilly "In a Nutshell" books, the converage of XML is fast paced and complete. Your money will be well spent on this book. I even think most beginners will do well with this one!

by James J. Maivald, Cathy Palmer
Average Customer Review: 5 stars based on 2 reviews.
Customer Review: Despite being an Adobe Certified Instructor in InDesign, I never really understood working with XML until I read this book. Maivald and Palmer have taken an otherwise mysterious language and made it clear and understandable for anyone. This book has no peer and is a must for those interested in harnessing the power of XML.

I had to chuckle at a previous review that couldn't understand why something was found in multiple places. Well perhaps it is used in several places. I would be happy that the inde...

Learning XML, Second Edition
by Erik Ray
Average Customer Review: 3.5 stars based on 38 reviews.
Customer Review: I am amplifying a prior review (Daniel McKinnon's) in order to balance a misperception as to the intent and execution of the book. This is not XSLT or XPath or "DOM processing in Firefox" or "node traversals with Java", it's an introduction to XML. If you need a solid foundation upon which to base further study, I wholly recommend t...
