The book does a great job in providing details on the 'Responsive Web Design' concept.

Media queries is one the main topics of the book and the author does an excellent job in explaining it. Fluid grid layout is another technique that is easy to understand just by reading through the paragraphs.

Flexible images is the third component of the whole Responsive Web Design (Media query and Fluid grid layout being the other two of course) and I was amazed at the simplicity of implementing this feature.

A good chunk of the book concentrates on HTML5 and CSS3 features which makes sense in light of how these new features help in creating a responsive site. The author also cautions the readers of when not to use responsive web design.

The book contains many websites that are highly useful tools for a web developer.

The book creates a fictitious website to help its readers implement the features. I'm one of those guys who likes work with the book, so that boosted my understanding big time.

For the hungry minds, CSS3 - The Missing Manual by David Sawyer McFarland is a great add-on for this book.
