You'll need a work email address or a LinkedIn account, but if you have one of those, you can get a very valuable freebie.

It is The Principles of Beautiful Web Design. This is the 3rd edition, the most recent one. And the fact that it's been through 3 editions should tell you something about the quality of this book.

But don't depend on just that. It's rated 4.2 stars, but from only 14 reviews at the present time at Amazon; it's rated 3.92 (excellent, for them), from 900 ratings at GoodReads. The author Jason Beaird has written a slew of web-related books, many of which have been highly rated and/or bestsellers.

Here's the blurb from the giveaway website, Shareware on Sale:
A methodical approach to presenting traditional graphic design theory as it applies to today’s website development industry.

This book presents what the author knows about designing for the Web in a way that anyone can understand and apply. Why? Because the basics of website design should be common knowledge. We all live in and work on an internet that has been blindly covering up ugly with more ugly since its inception. It’s time to break that chain and make bold moves toward better design.

The price of the digital book (Kindle mobi) is $15.66. This free digital download is a PDF.

Here's a webpage that I think will allow you to grab this freebie.
