HTML5 / CSS3 books

Hi everyone

Does anyone have any recommendations on good books to learn HTML5 and CSS3? I know there's probably plenty of resources on the internet, but I'd actually like a real book with proper pages to flick through! :D

I've been working with HTML and CSS for several years and have a reasonably good idea of how they work, so it doesn't have to be a complete Noddy guide - it's just the new bits of HTML5 I'd like to get to grips with.

Thanks in advance.

I've found most books on web-related topics to be borderline obsolete by the time they hit the shelves.

I've read the book below; it's fairly informative for someone who is new to html5 / css3. Might be useful to you
HTML5 & CSS3 For The Real World

i agree to an extent here; quite a few books that I've read (on php specifically) show many things but often use incorrect "generic" techniques; so you do learn a lot but you can learn more by doing reading on areas like forums, etc.

CSS3: Visual Quick Start Guide and Dive into HTML5 by Mark Pilgrim are good books to learn.
