Title: Poorly Organized and Not Very Informative
Product review: I regret buying this book. There is no coherent logical structure to the book. Each chapter seems to have been written in isolation to the others. As a result, simple material covered in earlier chapters is repeated again and again, and some material that should be presented early in the book is left until far too late (e.g. XML entities are left until after XLink!). Simple to grasp ideas are constantly re-explained from chapter to chapter, while more complex issues (e.g. some of the DTD syntax) are skimmed over are not explained at all (one suspects the authors did not understand them).There is also too much "selling" of XML. Fine, the intro explains why XML is better than HTML, but why is this repeated again and again in each chapter?
