Summary of HTML Mastery: Semantics, Standards, and Styling

That's where this unique book comes init's aimed at web designers and developers who have already mastered the basics of HTML and web design, but want to take their markup further, making it leaner and more semantically rich, for a more efficient, more usable/accessible web site.
