Learning [Posted on 2007-09-12]
The format of the tutorials are not consistant throughout the book, but I have been able to follow them and complete them. I do like the definitions and tips in this book.
Very Dissapointing [Posted on 2007-12-21]
One of the few times I wished I could return a book after reading it.
I found no direction or vision about the product. The largest part of the book seemed to be simply going over the menu items one by one and giving a brief description of their function. No Imagination from the author here. The CSS section seemed worthwhile, but again it was a dictionary. The author did not tie the principls into design.
I really felt like the author "phoned" this one in.

not for the beginner [Posted on 2008-03-20]
If you are using expression web for the first time, this book is overwhelming. Way too many words. Now that I have been using expression web for a couple months, I am able to make use of this book and expand my knowledge base but it is not a book to get you up & running right away.
Technical manual Not A Guide For A Newly Released Program [Posted on 2008-03-26]
Overburdened technical manual - not a user-friendly guide for Microsoft's Expression Web that was released to replace Frontpage. Laborious, tedious, and difficult to wade through - if you're looking for a book to actually help you design websites using Expression Web SKIP THIS ONE. If you want something that you can flip through to answer specific questions regarding CSS and other technical questions regarding Expression Web's design and functions then this would probably be it... considering the author is one of the utmost expert's on Expression Web and answers questions on Microsoft's Expression Web help site.
Still waiting on a decent book on developing websites in Microsoft Expression Web - not the technical definitions and aspects of CSS, ASP, etc.
Don't Bother Buying this Book [Posted on 2008-05-11]
I bought this book to help me transition from FP 2003 to Expression web. The book is a big disappointment. She explains everything in code... I want simple explanations, like most people moving from Front page would...She assumes that you will be writing your own code I guess...very sorry that I bought it...The book covers very little and the examples that she wants you to download are ridiculous. I'm not sure who this book will help, definitely not me. If I could give it a "0" star rating I would.
