The O'Reilly Pocket Reference does the trick... Also check out the docs and
links at www.xml.com
XML's power lies in simplicity, so don't expect a 400 page book, or any of
those super padded "XML Unleashed" type books.

Unless you happen to have picked up "Professional XML" from WROX, which
weighs in at 1169 pages (counting "intentionally blank" pages ;-)
Covers W3C DOM, SAX, CSS, XSLT, DTDs, XML Schemas, XLink, XPointer,
XPath, E-Commerce, BizTalk, B2B, SOAP, WAP, WML

Good, and language neutral, yes. Of the ones I own, I tend to use
_XML_Specification_Guide_ by Ian S. Graham, Liam Quin as the most
definitive explanation of what the XML spec says and means.
It talks about XML itself, not about all the hype that's grown up
around it. However, it is so language neutral that there is no
discussion of writing code to process XML.
Hoping that the URL isn't mangled by email, you can see a description
and some reviews at

(That's all one URL; glue it back together if email wraps it...)
