Summary: Bravo....
Review: This book is a great addition to anyone new or old to Photoshop. The Chapters are well written, humorous at times, and explain everything a person needs to do to get better. Chapter 7 alone was great for me. It deals with color management and calibration, and is a must have. I have 3 others Pshop books, and this one goes far beyond the others in that Chapter.

Summary: A wonderful hands-on experience
Review: This book was able to get me completely up to speed and comfortable with a program that is deep and rich in features. It accomplishes this in a way that makes learning the program, not only fun, but the tutorials also manage to constantly reinforce shortcuts that help me to use the program efficiently. Before reading this book, I understood very little about how to use Photoshop (or what it was capable of doing), but after reading through most of the tutorials, I feel confident to create and explore and have a clear idea of the why's and how's to make the program do what I need to accomplish.If you are a beginner to Photoshop, I recommend you jump right in and enjoy the tutorials the book has to offer. One of my favorite tutorials covered the Art History Brush, a tool I never truly understood until now. The results are amazing. A really great book if you're serious about learning Photoshop.

Summary: A Must Have...............
Review: This is a MUST HAVE book. I was tired of books that "taught" me how to do stuff. You just follow the steps, at the end you have a nice effect but don't know how to redo it.
This book teaches you ins and outs of Photoshop 7.
If you're serious about learning Photoshop, this is the book for you. Don't let the size of this book scare you.
It's really worth it.
