CSS3 for Web Designers, released yesterday, is the second instalment in A Book Apart’s For Web Designers series of mini books for, unsurprisingly, web designers. The book, available both as an ebook (now) and a paperback (from 22nd Nov), aims to show designers those aspects of CSS3 which can be comfortably used today, along with workarounds for older browsers which don’t support CSS3 (e.g. Internet Explorer 6.0 through 8.0). Over six chapters, the book ranges from basic topics such as gradients, shadows and rounded corners, to some of the more complicated aspects of CSS3 including advanced selectors, generated content and animations. It takes an almost story-like style, interspersing code examples and explanations with amusing stories, such as a trip down memory lane to the late 90’s and JavaScript image rollovers, and witty analogies, such as “I like to think of CSS transitions like butter”.

Jeffrey Zeldman has the following praise for the book: You couldn’t ask for a smarter, more design-focused, more detail-obsessed guide to the smoking hot newness and conceptual and browser challenges of CSS3 CSS3 for Web Designers is written by renowned web designer and author Dan Cederholm, whose previous books include Handcrafted CSS (New Riders), Bulletproof Web Design (New Riders) and Web Standards Solutions (Friends of ED). Like his previous works, CSS3 for Web Designers is extremely well written and easy to follow, regardless of your skill level or familiarity with CSS3. You can purchase the book or read a sample chapter, on CSS3 transitions,. Martin says: It took the book (hardcopy no ebook) almost a month to travel to Germany, but it was definitely worth the wait. Besides the fact that webfonts isn’t covered at all by Dan Cederholm (and rightfully so), the book offers an easy “just do it yourself and see what your browser will do” introduction into CSS3.

Far better than any reference-collection if you want to get into the topic. If A Book Apart keeps up such great titles, they will become the main source for designers – as the website already is.
