Thanks to the CD that comes with the book, learning Lightroom becomes a 100% practical process because each lesson has its own set of images that correspond to those which have been used in the explanation of the book.

"Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2 Classroom in a Book" is Adobe's "official" training for Lightroom 2. That doesn't make it necessarily better or more enjoyable a course presentation, but it does give you some assurance that the contents are accurate. Actually, I'm not entirely sure whether Adobe publishes this book, or PeachPit publishes it using Adobe's imprimatur (I think the latter). In any event, you can get a feel for the writing and the instructional flow from the samples on PeachPit's web site for this title (look on the "extras" tab), which is helpful as Amazon doesn't have a "Look Inside" for this title.
The contents of the book include:
Getting Started
1. A Quick Tour of Photoshop Lightroom
2. Introducing the Workspace
3. Importing
4. Reviewing
5. Organizing and Selecting
6. Developing and Editing
7. Creating Slideshows
8. Printing Images
9. Publishing your Photos on the Web
10. Creating Backups and Exporting Photos

Personally, I think the material is a little dry, though I wouldn't over-emphasize that.

There's no doubt that Kelby's books are highly regarded! Kelby's book may be found here: The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2 Book for Digital Photographers (Voices That Matter)
