And despite working for the W3C, Shawn has not created another W3C-stlye document. This book will find most use, I think, with people who already do testing of some nature but to whom accessibility is still a black art. It will also appeal to people running small business &#8211; perhaps developers who know their HTML\/CSS trade inside and out but want to be able to expand their horizons and go beyond simply saying &#8220;we create accessibile web sites&#8221; and really mean it &#8211; and I would also recommend that some of the accessibility gurus take a leaf through this and not assume that they know it already. The fact that by buying the book you&#8217;ll be helping the author directly makes it oh so much sweeter.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accessify.com\/features\/reviews\/just-ask\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">read full review on accessify.com \u2197<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>view the book online \u2197 Focusing on User Centered Design (UCD) methodology with the angle of getting users of different abilities involved into the design process &#8211; this free online book is not another W3C document with code references and guidelines.
