Editorial Reviews

The book covers DITA as a thorough overview of the software technology. It starts with describing DITA and its basic principle, and then a series of chapters describe individual portions of DITA. … it is a useful little book and a good introduction to a tool for organizing and publishing technical documentation.” (Anthony J. Duben, Computing Reviews, January, 2017)
