Smashing jQuery out now (I was technical editor...)

Following the article I wrote for Smashing Magazine last year, I was approached by their publishers, Wiley, to act as technical editor for their forthcoming book, Smashing jQuery.

This has just been published, and is available from Amazon here.

It's aimed at beginners to intermediate jQuery users and covers pretty much everything, from the basics - selectors, chaining etc - to more intermediate topics such as event handling and AJAX.

Speaking of Smashing magazine, look out for another article of mine shortly to be published on their website. It will be a tutorial on building an image manipulation tool using a mixture of jQuery and PHP.
