HBR Guide to Managing Up and Across by by Harvard Business School Press
The book is a very fragmented, a shortened version of papers. I have to say the book seems very like a how to be a perfect flattering person in your career. If you really believe you want to spend the rest of your life in a hierarchical organization.

Refactoring UI by Adam Wathan and Steve Schoger
An outstanding book by Adam Wathan and Steve Schoger which clearly explains how to go from a ordinary UI to outstanding, modern and accessible one. It would teach you what to see in a UI and what matters while keeping things simple and easy for end-users.

The HTML part is straight forward; we have a circle in 100 by 100 view box, centered at 50 with a radius of 45.
