Summary: This book is complicated
Review: This book is probably good for people that knows photoshop. The book consist mainly of text with limited pictures. Most of the time, the book will tells you to do something and will not show you where to select the tools from. Most of the time you have to figure this out yourself, which makes me wonder why I would even consider reading this book. Each chapter is a stuggle because of the lack of menus and the skipping of steps. I think the people at Adobe thinks this is funny. They tried to make this techincal. Its attempts to make it hard makes this book worthless. We are not learning C++, java, javascript, perl, cgi,php,delpi,vb, etc here. This is a simple application like word or excel. This books talks about how tough photoshop is. Photoshop is simple. I would recommend The Visual Series by the Maran Family.
They have a good book that is easy to understand. The Bible is a good book for reference. This book is too simple to be a reference and too complex to be a learning tool. The best thing is to sell this book and never look at this thing again. What a waste of time by the authors. Of course, this is the offical training workbook for the staff at Adobe. In a summary, this book is junk.
