XSS Attacks: Cross Site Scripting Exploits and Defense

A great read
This book is pretty much where it's at with regard to the various forms of XSS. The only downside I can think of is it doesn't seem to have been proof read, or if it has, by someone who can't read.

Spoiled by poor English
I found the standard of English in this book to be so poor that at times it actually prevented clear understanding of the points being expressed. They have obviously used a spell-checker but not had it proof-read by a human being.The content itself was adequate.

Comprehensive content but with a lot of errors and poorly written
This is a good book for getting started with XSS, with comprehensive information about the subject, but with quite a few significant drawbacks:- There are a lot of spelling errors (almost one per page)- There's not a straightforward structure of content- It's very apparent that this has been written separately by many authors: there doesn't seem to be an effort to provide a single, similar and coherent writing style (e.g. in the same chapter, each section has its own little introduction, repeating things already mentioned in previous sections)- It has had a very poor technical and editorial review (as shown by the many mistakes)- It contains some strange things that make you wonder about how much thought was put while making the book (e.g. screenshots of full-black webpages)Given the fact that there aren't many books on the subject, this is one you'd probably want to buy, but be prepared for a lot of mistakes and oversights.
