Look inside
HTML5 in Action provides a complete introduction to web development using HTML5. You'll explore every aspect of the HTML5 specification through real-world examples and code samples. It's much more than just a specification reference, though. It lives up to the name HTML5 in Action by giving you the practical, hands-on guidance you'll need to use key features.
about the technology
HTML5 is not a few new tags and features added to an old standard--it's the foundation of the modern web, enabling its interactive services, single-page UI, interactive games, and complex business applications. With support for standards-driven mobile app development, powerful features like local storage and WebSockets, superb audio and video APIs, and new layout options using CSS3, SVG, and Canvas, HTML5 has entered its prime time.

Company Choice
Initially, being able to download the ebook for a purchased paper book was a big draw. Since then the MEAP program has been great for early access on newer technologies too. The books have been well edited too, making Manning one of my preferred publishers for technology books.
Product Choice
Mix of books to either update my reference library (eg HTML5, CSS) or dig deeper on other topics (Airflow, math topics).
