Uh, the link you posted -has- the definitive descriptions:

Desktop CD
The desktop CD allows you to try Ubuntu without changing your computer
at all, and at your option to install it permanently later. This type of
CD is what most people will want to use. 

Alternate install CD
The alternate install CD allows you to perform certain specialist
installations of Ubuntu. It provides for the following situations:

      * creating pre-configured OEM systems;
      * setting up automated deployments;
      * upgrading from older installations without network access;
      * LVM and/or RAID partitioning;
      * installs on systems with less than about 192MB of RAM.


Server install CD
The server install CD allows you to install Ubuntu permanently on a
computer.

(Oh well, I guess this one could use some work :)
