"Who needs this book?" asks the author in her introduction and goes on to answer it: "beginning and intermediate users who are familiar with Microsoft Windows 95, 98 or NT and with a word processing program such as Microsoft Word." The emphasis throughout is on achieving "professional looking" results, but the book is not aimed at the professional user, but those who want to create a family or small business Web site. No previous knowledge of Web design, or for that matter any other kind of design or programming is assumed, so if taking 15 minutes to create a bulleted list in Word is sufficient cause for air-punching and shouting "yes!" then this book is probably aimed at you. London promises that if you re creating your first web site you ll be up and running by chapter four. But don t bother even switching on the PC until page 33. First, London covers planning, design principles, knowing your audience, storyboarding and flowcharting. Much use is made of examples--the Smythe family Web site is the most extensively used of twelve "case studies" including a flower shop, charity, insurance company and figure-skating Web-zine. Unusually for this kind of book, there s no accompanying CD, but one of the most useful resources is the colour centre section--a Web gallery including real-life examples of the techniques demonstrated. Front Page 2000: Get Professional Results is a useful companion for the novice who needs further explanation than is available in the FrontPage documentation, help and wizards. --Ken McMahon
