Well it was a lot of lists, a lot of the material was useful, unfortunately the book itself looked like it had been typeset in Word and then printed off on a photocopier.

Fortunately I think they realized this too and in the last few years they’ve really improved to the point where the look of their books matches the technical material. In the Canada and the U.S. they have been distributed by O’Reilly publishing since 2004 and I wonder if that had some influence on their more inviting look.?

If you’re interested in web design I’d suggest having a look though some of their recent titles.
