4.0 out of 5 stars An easy introduction to XML for the uninitiated, Aug 21 2003

Some experience with HTML might be mandatory. But, the examples are excellent and easy to follow. And the text is neither dry nor simple minded.

3.0 out of 5 stars A book for XML beginners, Jun 10 2003

This review is from: XML Step by Step, Second Edition (Step By Step (Microsoft)) (Paperback)

This is a book for beginners. I bought the first edition and it gave me all the important information about XML before I started working with it. When I first read it, I thought it was a wonderful book and it was very easy to understand. You will now what's XML in one week and you'll be able to start using it in only two days just by looking at the examples.

Unfortunately, right now I know there's so much more out there about XML than the information contained on the book and believe me, once that you read it, you are never going to used it again because it's not a good book for reference.

I would recommend you to look for a different book with more examples, source code, advanced features or even one that can be used as a reference in your future work.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very informative
The author does a pretty good job at laying out the basics of XML in a step-by-step fashion, although he does tend to be a bit verbose - just like the language. Read more
