Reader Reviews
Photoshop is a very powerful and sometimes ovewhelming application to learn. This book is very helpful in learning the basics and refreshing you on what you know. There are very clear illustrations and directions to get you on the road to understanding the software. It is an excellent reference book for the novice Photoshop user and far better than any documentation provided by Adobe. My biggest gripe with this book is that it tries so hard to be your friend and use humour (in the tradition of the Dummies series) that the frivolity often got in the way of getting to the point. This is one time I found the the humour to be simply distracting. Humor is good, but learing how to accomplish a task is the reason I buy a manual. If I want a comedy book, I'll look for Photoshop by Al Franken. Next edition I hope they assign an editor with a slightly more liberal use of the proofreading pen.
