To help minimize your learning curve I will post some reviews on books about website building that contain outstanding examples of new thinking. I suggest that you check this category regularly as I will frequently update it.
"Save the Pixel" - one of the best books on goal-oriented webdesign.
Ben Hunt has done a great job writing this one, it's simple, pleasure to read and - last but not least - cheap.
The key idea is that design is a means of information communication and presentation, which many webdesign companies completely forget. Now this guy reminds it to you.
Having 6 years of design experience, I highly recommend this book to anyone involved in sites production or thinking about ordering a site for himself.
Why should you read it? Simple: you will learn to work less, work faster and work more efficient. Given that the book isn't a thick old-school manual you will read and start to implement the contained ideas real fast.
My rating: 
(excellent)

Save the Pixel just got cheaper! The price has been cut to £9.99 for January 2009, which makes it better value, especially for companies looking for ways to see through the recession.
Well thanks alot for this hint - I think everyone who reads this will appreciate this piece of news
Scratch, I really want to get a copy of Save the Pixal but at full price £27 its very expensive, is there anywhere I can get it for 9.99? Can anybody help?
thanks so much
unlike the author of the blog my experience of design was next to nothing but within moments of reading I began creating. My site progressed into http://organicwebdesigns.co and reflects his teachings. It's improving by the day as I continue to study his methodology, and I moved onto his 2nd book convert
