Designing with Web Standards
I did find the time over last weekend to read Designing with Web Standards. I can recommend this book with any hesitation whatsoever, and regardless of whether your role in Web development is as a designer, developer, business owner, or hobbyist. Jeffrey did a fantastic job of making the case for design and development with standards, but not in a heavy handed manner, and with wit that I wish I could employ. He also describes the pitfalls to watch out for and the techniques to use to avoid them with aplomb. I found it one of the easiest to read books about Web development I have ever read. Pick it up.
