Taschen Strikes Again3
As a fan of the Taschen books, I picked this one up when designing out a few sites and seeking inspiration.

That's often how I find myself picking up Taschen books- they are great for inspiration! From logos to sites and Japanese prints, Taschen prints quality books to inspire you in what it is that you seek.

This book, in particular, is helpful if you seek a cornucopia of visual ideas/screen shots for website design at your fingertips. Just keep in mind the back-end programming of each site as you look at them, and your website design goal, target audience, and how the design/campaign/branding will be maintained as it is expanded. There are quite a few really nice, inspirational, elegant designs that are simple in here, and some that are a bit older, but is it worth the $10? Definitely.

On Track With The Other Books by Taschen5
While the book is not going to give you any great insight to what makes a site tick, it does exactly what it intends to and that is inspire through lots of screenshots of amazing websites.

Don't listen to other reviewers who say that the book is in the wrong language. It's just written in three languages and sometimes it looks like English is omitted, but it's still there, probably just on the next page.

Another complaint by other reviews has been a lack of Flash sites. Well, if you want Flash sites, buy Taschen's book full of Flash pages. It's as simple as that.

Overall this book is a very nice addition to the ICONS series.

Great catalog of the best web studios in the world. Very usefull as a benchmarking guide in webdesign area. Could have more examples of work. But you can check this out in the studio's websites.
