by hello.
this week a new book covering the technical foundations of the world
wide web will be released by springer-verlag. the reader is provided
with a detailed overview of the most important technologies of the
web (including URI/URL, HTTP, SGML, HTML, CSS, XML, and many more),
with special emphasis on the way they interrelate with each other.
with its clear structure, this book can also be used as a reference
work for anyone who works with the different concepts that make up the
complex infrastructure of today's world wide web. further information
about the book, including a detailed table of contents, can be found
at:

currently, there are many books dealing with individual issues, such
as HTML and CSS. however, there is no book covering all aspects of
web technology, providing a handy reference and overview for people
using the web professionally, or for those who are just curious to
know how the web works.
