Summary: Wonderful Book
Review: Dear Amazon,I purchased this book a month ago... I have been a Computer Graphic Designer for 2 yrs. But have worked in the field for 8 yrs... I wished I had this book when I was first learning. I learned more from this book, than just Fireworks, It has also helped me with my Web designing...I carry it with me... I plan to buy more of Sandee's books. I can't get enof now. Thank You,

Summary: Using it for all my Fireworks classes
Review: I am an instructor of Web graphics at a small community/vocational school. This book is perfect for all my classes. Not only does it teach Fireworks, but it has lots of background on the Web in general. I can't think of a better book to buy!

Summary: short task descriptions
Review: The book follows in the footsteps of the other QuickStart books. Fireworks is a nice graphics drawing package. This functionality lends itself easily to a QuickStart approach. The inherent visual nature of Fireworks means that every page can have graphics demonstrating some aspect. (Don't try this with an algorithms book.)
The pages are also usually in a 2 column format, instead of the default single column for books. Presumably, it is meant to be easier to read. Shorter attention span needed and all that. The general tenor is of snappy task descriptions. Maybe for the harried reader who just wants an answer and not an essay on the theory of drawing.
The book seems to be random access. Use the contents and index to find and apply a solution. The two together seem to trace out well the abilities of Fireworks.
