Reader ReviewsYou'll save your time and make more money faster and sooner with this book, guaranteed. I've been struggling for months trying to get the "big picture." It's developed here in this workbook from the viewpoint of someone creating a web SITE, not a web PAGE. I'm slow and I paid $200 earlier this summer for a two-day course in Dreamweaver. It was nothing compared to this book! This book is the instructor-led course you've been looking for without the instructor. It is completely organized building step-by-step from Fundamentals to Advanced. It teaches by doing, not by mimicing like Courseware does. You can repeat sections when you mess up, you can start and stop at your leisure and you can take phone calls in the middle of class, if you need to earn a living. This book leaves nothing out, no step... and that's the first of two deadly mistakes that the instructor-led course did. He skipped over basics and showed us how to go right to the more advanced methods. Then when I sat down at the computer 3 days later, I could not even get started. The second deadly mistake of the expensive instructor-led course was that we didn't get a reference book with the course. This well organized book will serve as a reference in time to come. The $200 course included three pages of copied handouts. (By the way, the course was taught by an accredited instructor at an accredited institution. Too bad for me.) At $35 this book is an incredible bargain. If you get it for less, even better. I don't think you can do better than this course if you're a beginner or even a capable part-time user. And if you can, well you're out $35 bucks tops... but you can pass it on and do a friend a favor.
