Summary: Against the Clock Illustrator 8 Intro
Review: If you want to learn digital illustration with Adobe Illustrator 8, this book is the choice to make! I bought it and Classroom in a book at the same time, and this one is much better! It carefully explains all features in a slow, work-at-your-own-pace rate, and covers much more than the adobe book! It gives you the opportunity to try the projects, and also take the skills further for your own interests. If you just want an overview, this is not your book, but if you want a book that will take someone totally ignorant of the program (like me), and get you up to speed doing beautiful illustrations, then you should buy and use this book! It is awesome!

Review: In my college Illustrator class we used this book as the textbook. It is straight forward, easy to follow. A very good book to start with.
