After diving into the materials and exploring "modern" web design for some hours, I am quite pleased how things evolved (especially on the browser side) during the last years (last time I did something similar was three years ago).
I started by reading "designing with web standars" by Jeffrey Zeldman, but was soon disappointed by the writing style, perhaps I got too addicted to specifications and a more formal style of writing. Additional, I am not at all interested in the historical evolution of HTML and stories about Netscape 4 and the year 1997 when all I want is to learn and apply 'new' technologies.
Then I just switched to doing it by looking at different sites and examples of CSS and everything made sense.
Best,
