Rating: - Great for Newbies (to XML and Programming in general)
This book is VERY comprehensive. Holzner literally holds your hand through every single step, which is great if you are totally new XML or even programming in general.
However, if you have more than 1 or two years real world experience programing, this book will more than likely just frustrate you on certain levels. The information is still top notch, it's just that the path getting there is very deliberate.
See some of the other negative reviews for examples.

Rating: - One of the better XML books around
XML can be a rather dry topic. Steve Holzner writes in a style that makes the subject rather interesting. It's the first XML book that I've come across that hasn't sent me to sleep. This book is a great intro into the world of XML. Highly recommended for those looking for a starting point.
Rating: - A good reference book on XML and its uses.

Rating: - Very good overview of XML technologies...
This is the second edition of Holzner's book, which was originally titled Inside XML. I purchased Inside XML back in 2001 when I first started exploring XML, and it was a good choice back then. Looking at the new version of the book, my opinion hasn't changed. It's still a good choice.
Holzner assumes little programming knowledge in his writing. The JavaScript and Java chapters dealing with XML each start with a very high-level tutorial on the language. It's enough to allow ... Read More
Rating: - exceptionally well written
I think, learing a technology is best possible, if it is explained in an interesting, clear and organized manner. This book does just that. The details are great, the style is even excellent. This is a must buy for anyone who wants to learn basic, intermediate, and many advanced features of XML. I rate this, one of the best XML books I have.
