I'm glad I only borrowed this book from the library. I haven't seen a more inept piece of instructional writing in my life.To see how an educational book should be written, I strongly recommend _XML by Example_, 2nd Edition (ISBN: 0789725045). It's not a breeze but uses some common sense.As for the fellow who is so presumptuous to assume that all 14 negative reviewers just "breezed through it like a harlequin romance,", I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. I'll assume either he's a.) mistaking this for another, similarly titled book, or b.) from another planet. Nanoo-nanoo.
