I tech-edited the first two editions, before a change in personnel at the
Publisher.

They were good, solid introduction/journeyman texts with enough meat to
last you for awhile.

They were geared toward somebody who had a LITTLE programming experience,
and some HTML experience, rather than a complete beginner.

I haven't read the latest edition, though.

The addition of "MySQL" is a change -- possibly making it much larger, or
possibly chopping out a fair amount of the content to "make room" for the
MySQL stuff...

Hope that is at least a little helpful.
