XML Problem Design Solution (Programmer to Programmer)

Mitch Amiano, Conrad D'Cruz, ...

Wrox, 2006

Great book for "real-world" XML
Everybody or most of everybody that are in web design in some form or another have heard about XML or even used it a bit. But personally I feel there are a small amount of resources out there that really teach you how to use XML in "real-world" scenarios. It's nice to ...

XSLT 2.0 Programmer's Reference (Programmer to Programmer)

Michael Kay

Wrox, 2004

For serious developers only -- but perfect for the right audience
This is exactly what I want from a technical book on a tricky, subtle topic: it is *serious* and does not kid around. If you're new to programming, XML, declarative languages, or regular expressions: this is not the book for you. If you're familar with all those things ...

Professional XML (Programmer to Programmer)

Bill Evjen, Kent Sharkey, ...

Wrox, 2007

Can be a reference.
This book has got a decent content about XML. But, most pages have been added to technologies that aren't being used much and just adds bulk to the book. A little rhetoric and not always concise to the point; but can live with it. Over all a good reference book. 3 ...

Michael B. Collins, Marvin Kay

University of Texas Press, 2002

Technical but mildly interesting
This book is extremely technical, devote professional archaeologists will have a great time reading this. The average person, will likely be bored by more than half of this book. I am glad it was written, very detailed, on cores, core flakes, dimensions of flakes, ...
