Though there are several books focused on the product known as SharePoint Designer, these books are NOT focused on the process of creating engaging web design with SharePoint. They are typically focused on the pure mechanics of using that specific product to work with a SharePoint site. Some of them contain 1 or 2 chapters that briefly discuss the topics that will be covered in much more granular detail in this book.
