Concepts, concepts

This book is a little confusing if you are starting with XML. But if you keep working on it, you will find it really rewarding. It focuses on giving you a conceptual review of the technologies related to XML and XML itself, instead of providing a bunch of "if you have this problem, do this" kind of receipts.

It is outdated by now in terms of the sintax, specially with the XML schema spec getting the recommendation status. Nevertheless the concepts behind didn't change fundamentally. If you have read the Primer from the W3C but didn't get enough from it, but don't want to go to the spec (who reads that?) then this book may be of great help.
