The book includes a quick primer to XML, as well as coverage of all of the popular parsers, authoring tools, and programming interfaces available. The book also offers several glimpses into how XML can be implemented in the real world and leaves it up to the readers to decipher whether the techniques are appropriate for their needs.

Experience Design
by Nathan Shedroff
The field of experience design is emerging to help define what great experiences are (so that knowledge can be built from them) and to discover processes for creating these experiences. Experience Design draws on all types of design (industrial, architecture, fashion) as well as the performing arts (theater, storytelling, and party planning) to present concepts and methods for designers to create meaningful, truly interactive experiences--all via a balance of visually oriented materials and text, with impact ranging from subtle and seductive to bold and provocative. --From the publisher


Our Price: $45.00     Javascript : The Definitive Guide (3rd Edition)
by David Flanagan
JavaScript: The Definitive Guide is a great book for professional programmers. The beginning gives the stuff that seasoned developers look for--a definitive reference on the core of the language. This is good because it allows one to identify where various implementations of the language deviate from the standard. The remainder of the book is done in the familiar O'Reilly style--consistently organized, thorough, informative. If you're looking for entertaining reading, don't look here. If you're looking for a reliable reference on JavaScript this is it. --From Amazon.com customer Eric W. Richardson
