Adaptive Web Design: Crafting Rich Experiences with Progressive Enhancement by Aaron Gustafson, Jeffrey Zeldman

3.0

Not a bad book, listing various techniques in web development that accomplish "Progressive Enhancement" design pattern. Most of the suggestions and techniques for the HTML and CSS sections are pretty straight forward so I didn't pick up anything new there. I was happy that the author included microformats since they are hardly ever used yet with wider adoption could be quite useful.

The JavaScript section was more helpful and the final chapter on accessibility was very good.

Overall a good book to pick up to learn about Progressive Enhancement. I find that a lot of developers don't know about these techniques and as a result the web suffers.
