Good book, especially if you're new to the whole HTML5 thing or need to read up on certain API's. This is a book by Klaus Fรถrster and Bernd รggl from 2011 (recent!). Unfortunately the marvellous cover artwork was not repeated in the book, I liked it. I guess I've seen too many animals there I generally liked the book.

I'd have preferred some API reference and some short practical examples related to them. Another point of critique is using a lot of at the time of writing, this and that browser do support it but none of the others do. While these sort of remarks are dangerous on a blog post because they'll be outdated and are unlikely to be fixed, they certainly won't be fixed in paper book form.
