5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, August 27, 1999

By	Brad McCormick (Chappaqua, NY United States) - See all my reviews

This is a really good book to introduce SGML. Also, especially now that SoftQuad is out of the SGML web browser business, and no longer provides its Panorama SGML Netscape browser plug-in, the copy of Panorama Pro included on the CD that comes with the book is worth more than the price of the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book can get you *started* with SGML!, April 8, 1998

By	Brad McCormick (Chappaqua, NY United States) - See all my reviews

Are you frustrated trying to get started learning about SGML, and how to do things with it? Do you feel like SGML is something out of a Kafka story? This book really can help you make that first big leap from helpless confusion, to being able to do things with SGML, and to be oriented so that you *can* become your own guide in going farther. Buy it: It works if you work it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book, March 14, 1998

By A Customer

This book is an excellent introduction to SGML and XML. Its well written and covers the topic in a reasonable amount of detail. It includes an evaluation version of an SGML browser from Softquad that is worth the price of the book itself.
