Summary: The best reference book for Quark I ever found
Review: I've been using Quark for a few year now, and teaching it for a little while, too. I've bought and read many Quark books, but none were even close to this one. This book, "...in a nutshell," is absolutely complete with all possible information you may need, including some tips even I didn't know.
Given, it might be easier for me to read it than a novice, but, as some wrote before, it does an amazing job in describing every single feature that existed in Quark up to version 4.x. Very clear, very direct, well ordered, easy to find information in, including images where images are necessary.
The only downside in my case - which will definitely NOT be the case for everyone - is that the book doesn't have any tutorials or exercises that we can practice with, or have students practice with. I usually use the "Around the Clock" series in my classes, simply because they have a decent (no more than that) tutorial in the end. If this book had one, I'd completely switch to it in a heartbeat.
Thus, if you have some notion of Quark, and want to learn more, get this book; if you know most of Quark, get this book so you can learn more; and, if you think you know all of it, get it and be surprised. Is all I can say. :-)

Summary: a very comprehensive encyclopedia
Review: Possibly the most useful book ever published for Quark 4.As a reference guide for the Quark user it is indespensible, covering all the features of the software as well as tips and techniques.
Not a book for learning Quark, so not for a complete novice but worth a place on any serious quark users bookshelf.
