Summary: Photoshop for scientists
Review: Seqdgwick's Quick Photoshop for Research is a well-produced book with one to two page instructions on using Adobe Photoshop in scientific imaging.

The book is not just for scientists! Anyone using Photoshop who is not an expert will benefit from the instructions. The science part is the admonition to be honest with your images - a point that needs to be taken seriously by scientists, photojournalists, and marketeers, but can be skirted by artists.

To get an idea of the breadth of coverage, check out huge number of entries in the table of contents (online) The book is about 100 pages long, so there is a lot to peruse. You do not need to read the book from front to back to get what you need to solve a problem "right now".

The style of the book is much better than the usual computer manual 'style' of "this is how you press the close button to close the dialog". Jerry actually explains what is going on with your images.

All in all, an excellent book for serious Photoshoppers.
