I love this book not been able to buy from Venezuela eh (problems with my paypal account). but I have summarized some of this book a few followers on twitter and more and more I blame myself for not buying it. something I do not like is that it published for free in pdf as it is not the same as having him in the hand. as you say Lee should be a Bliblia wall for web designers

[...] “The book is basically all of SM’s best articles condensed into a book. This is what you’d expect, as it would be hard to top what they have on the website already. The content is very detailed, perhaps even too much in some cases, but it is like a ‘bible of web design’ covering all the things you should know.” — Lee Munroe [...]

I love the book but I agree that the format isn’t the greatest. If it were bigger and bound nicer I think it would be just about perfect.

As it is, it’s a great source of reference and inspiration

The Smashing Book looks excellent. I want to introduce it to my friends.

My binding has already broke! Page 89 is out and stuck back in with tape!

I am currently on chapter 4 and so far I’m really enjoying the book. I have to agree with Johnathan tho, I like having all the material in my hand than it been spread across many pages of a website.

A lot or should I say 90% of what I’ve read so far I knew or was at least aware off but it is nice to have a refresh of things now and again. Looking forward to finishing the book too.

I got it for christmas and I’m on the second chapter at the minute. The first chapter was great but finding the second a little too basic but the rest of it looks great.
I prefer having everything in a book rather than lots of different articles spread around on the site, make it much easier to read I think.
And I agree about the binding, really awkward turing the pages without breaking the spine.
