    Bulletproof Web Design: Improving flexibility and protecting against worst-case scenarios with HTML5 and CSS3, Third Edition
    By Dan Cederholm
    New Riders, December 2011
    ISBN: 9780132883368
    360 pages, $44.99

    No matter how visually appealing or content-packed a website may be, if it’s not adaptable to a variety of situations and reaching the widest possible audience, it isn’t really succeeding. This book outlines standards-based strategies for building designs that provide flexibility, readability, and user control — key components of every successful site. Each chapter starts out with an example that employs a traditional HTML-based approach — which the author then deconstructs, pointing out its limitations. He then gives the site a makeover using HTML and CSS, so you can see how to replace bloated code with lean markup and CSS for fast-loading sites that are accessible to all users.
