Recently, I was given the opportunity to preview a few of the chapters of an upcoming title from No Starch Press called "The Book of Inkscape" by Dmitry Kirsanov and what I read looks very promising. If you are at all interested in Open Source alternatives, regardless of what platform you run, than this book may be a perfect addition to your library. It thoroughly introduces its' reader to SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) and Inkscape's array of full featured illustration tools while simultaneously being honest about the few limitations involved in creating and using SVG. I'm always happy to see good support and documentation for Open formats and software. SVG may still be young, but it holds a lot of potential and should continue to be developed and explored.
