Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - not as good as i was hopping
I read that it had very good reviews, but there are some mistakes, a couple of things that the writer did't explain at all making reading and exercising in joomla more difficult that it is. I'm even considering of buying another book to fill my gaps in joomla.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A must have for new Joomla! users!
This is a great book to have for new joomla! users! Especially if you do not know a lot about web design. I actually read the whole book, and still use it for a reference tool. The best way to learn Joomla! is dive in and hands on, but this book will help through. It also gives you ideas on how you want your site to work. I wish Barrie North would make a companion book that deals with more about tweaking/changing your Joomla site's CSS and other joomla extensions and files for a more individual flare.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good Book... but...A Tad Dissapointed
When I purchased on the basis that it would allow me to custom design my website. You see Barrie had a tutorial on his website that explained how to custom design Joomla template. I thought it was a good tutorial and the book would have gone more in depth into the aspect of custom design by providing more examples. Alas, the tutorial on customise templates his website is what appears in the book. Had I know that I would not have purchased.

The strength of this book is that it non technical and provides a solid foundation for a newbie. However, if you are interested in designing customised templates just download the tutorial on his site and don't purchase the book.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Great Beginners Book
I bought this book while starting my own Joomla site and it helped me figure out a lot of the little stuff I couldn't get figured out to get my site up and running. I would recommend to anyone new to Joomla.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Easy to Follow
This is an easy to to follow, well written beginners guide to building a Joomla! site. It is up to date and gives concise step by step instructions as well as excellent tips and overviews.
