Don’t just take our word for it…
Permalink to 'Don’t just take our word for it…'Ethan Marcotte, the guy who started the whole Responsive Design thing says in the book’s wonderful foreword:
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Scott on a number of responsive redesigns, and I’ve never encountered a designer who possesses such a keen awareness of—and respect for—the web’s fragility. And in this little book, Scott will share that ex- pertise with you, dear reader, teaching you how to build nimble, lightweight interfaces that are ready for the web’s volatility.”
