The book is easy to follow and tells you exactly what to do during the exercises to reach the intended outcome of the photos you are working with. It teaches you one thing then another, building as you go on with what you have done in previous chapters. It also comes with the CD-Rom of the contents you need for use with the book and exercises.

As a novice with Photoshop, other than Elements, I was looking for something that a beginner could use. This book was just the thing. Broken up into 1-2 hour lessons, it takes the user step by step through each lesson. The included CD with working files and some videos allows the user to see a final product before starting on each lesson.
The only down side to the book, and for some it will be a major downside, is that many of the reasons behind techniques are not well explained.

I had been looking for something that taught the basics and purchased the dummies book a week or so prior. I like doing tutorials online but they always skip steps. This book has been a lifesaver because it gives you the tools and practical applications. This is without a doubt, for this person anyway, the best book out there to actually learn how to use PS. I wish I had seen it prior to purchasing Dummies, I haven't even cracked that book since I go this one. I love the lessons and step-by-step instructions!
