Learning CSS3 - Book / EBook

Question

Could someone suggest a book for me to learn CSS3 from?

Thanks

Answer 1

No book suggestions, but I subscribe to the RSS feed of this site, and it keeps me in the loop :)

Answer 2

There are a couple of CSS3 books available on pre-order currently. One with HTML 5 coverage from APress and one without from W3Schools. As CSS3 hasn't been finalised yet and browsers are only implementing it in pieces at the moment, I'd keep reading sites like Smashing Magazine and CSS3.info for advice until it is finalised and look for Dave Shea, Eric Meyer or Hakum Lie to update their books.

Answer 3

I am currently reading Handcrafted CSS by Dan Cederholm. I highly recommend it. While it does not specifically focus on CSS3, it does cover several CSS3 rules and shows how to start using them in browsers today. Very good CSS book.

From the book:

Handcrafted CSS: More Bulletproof Web Design is an attempt to share some of these details that matter most. By encouraging “progressive enrichment” to utilize advanced CSS and CSS3 properties that work in browsers today, to reevaluating past methods and best practices. This book will show how craftsmanship can be applied to flexible, bulletproof, highly efficient and adaptable interfaces that make up a solid user experience.
