More Praise for Design Accessible Web Sites

I've been blown away by the reviews that the book has been giving. It's not that I'm entirely surprised—I mean I know it's a good book, but it's very humbling to hear that others feel the same way.

  • SDTimes listed DAWS as one of ten titles “to expand one's view of IT
  • Cyber Aspect's Julie Smyth says “I'm happy to give this book a double thumbs up. It is well written, enjoyable to read and contains so much helpful information, it's hard to list it all here.
  • Ask Felgall's Stephen Chapman says “This Book provides both an ideal introduction to accessibility as well as a central reference to all of the different aspects of accessibility that you need to take into account when designing a web site.
  • Weblabor's Török Gábor gives DAWS a 9/10, but I can't tell you much more than that because I can't read Hungarian— If you can, and would be willing to translate, please let me know!
  • Roger Johannsson at 456 Berea St gives DAWS a high recommendation, saying “There is not a lot of pedantery and preaching and ‘you must follow these guidelines exactly, or else’. Instead, the author focuses on the end result - if doing this or that actually makes the site more accessible. And in the end that is a lot more important than ticking boxes in a checklist.
  • NosillaCast #135 is a full half hour discussion between Allison Sheridan and Paige Eissinger about DAWS. I don't know where to start with this one—Paige and Allison's praise of the book was enough to make me turn pink for most of the afternoon!
  • Paige also discusses the book briefly with Dr. Kathleen King in Transformation Ed Episode 11 I didn't know about this podcast until recently, but it syncs up with a few of my major interest areas and I want to listen in on the old episodes and keep up with the new ones.

Thanks to each one of you for your wonderful comments about DAWS!
