Rating: - Excellent resource for both quality control and ideas
I bought this book quite a while ago and I absolutely the format. It's a great resource to just pick up and get great ideas, verify that you are on/off the right track and generally learn how to get to the next level with XML. Highly recommended
Rating: - How to Effectively Use XML
Elliotte Rusty Harold states in the introduction of Effective XML that the book is neither an introductory book nor an XML tutorial. Rather, it is a distillation of the author's experience using and teaching XML and how to use it effectively. The book does a great job of explaining how to use XML and its related technologies.
The book is divided into four major sections: Syntax, Structure, Semantics, and Implementation. Each of the fifty Items packs a lot of information into a few ... Read More
Rating: - I wish the XML Schema working group had a copy per member
This is not a book explaining XML. This is not a book that goes into any depth on XML APIs. It is not a book explaining any one XML format like XSLT, RSS, or XSD.

It is all structured to slowly introduce you into the complexities, and deserves to sit up on the bookshelf with Effective C++, Java and ... Read More

Chapter List: Syntax; Structure; Semantics; Implementation; Recommended Reading; Index
There are obviously a large number of books that will teach you the semantics of writing and using XML. But just because you can ... Read More
Rating: - The best XML book I've read
Effective XML is a collection of about 50 tips for working with XML. Although XML seems is simple and easy to use, it's also easy to get wrong. I've often scratched your head and wondered why things like XML Schema, for example, just doesn't feel right. But it wasn't until I read Effective XML that I understood what was really awkward with it.
Because the book is so diverse (an amazing feat considering the small page count), it is hard to single out any specific part as being a reason to ... Read More
