 book review September 22, 2007
A book for people already familiar with photoshop, too complex for beginers, written in a dull way.
 Very Helpful July 8, 2007

This is an excellent book, which actually explains a lot about Photoshop for the newer user. It was recommended to me be by a professional and I am happy that I got it. Its only drawback is that none of the graphic charts are in color. Not terrible but it would certainly be helpful.

I had photoshop 5 and the corresponding Visual Quickstart guide. When I upgraded to CS2, I bought this book based on my satisfaction with the previous version. I was not disappointed.
The concept of these books is to provide a 1-3 page illustrated lesson on real world tasks. With photoshop, that works particularly well. I am an occasional user, and this book helps me get great results fast.

5-year Final cut pro editor, who never learned Photoshop. I bought the for Dummies volume, which was little help. On page 101 now of this 300 or so page book, and am ecstatic over the doors it's already opened for the program. Read carefully, take your time... but you can't go wrong with this!
