Lynda Weinman and Jon Warren Lentz's Deconstructing Web Graphics.2 should be on every serious Web designer's shelf. There are many books about HTML and Web design out there, but few really distinguish themselves as essential. Deconstructing Web Graphics.2 is an exception. Like most of Weinman's work, the book strikes an excellent balance between inspiration and practical techniques. This is a good book for designers who have some experience with Photoshop or Fireworks and want to take the next step. Weinman focuses on case studies of various Web design challenges, and looks at such areas as DHTML, Flash, and Photoshop layers.
