Summary: Very pleasurable way of learning Office 97
Review: A great book for those who want to skim through and pick up what they want, without having to fight through the jargon. Also very good for those of us who learn faster by visual prompts.

Summary: Excellent book for beginners or reference for experienced!
Review: As a computer instructor, I have gone through many books trying to find an easy-to-understand textbook for my beginning students. I found it in Ruth Maran's "Simplified" books. I find most textbooks on Office 97 too wordy and hard to follow. The "Simplified" books show you how to use each application in short easy steps with colorful illustrations. Anyone can learn how to use Microsoft Office with these books. There are no excuses now.

Summary: Excel Comfort
Review: I first saw this book in an Excel class I took a few days ago.
We were not allowed to keep the books because they were needed for future students. However, I was completely sold on Office 97 Simplified during the class and knew I wanted a book of my own. I came back to work and told my boss about it and he is allowing me to purchase two for our office. So many computer books are so complicated the average person cannot follow them but Office 97 Simplified uses a step-by-step, no nonsense wording with pictures that even a young child could benefit from it. I salute the writers and publishers for creating a book that almost anyone can understand. Thank you!

Summary: Great Quick Reference
Review: In our corporate environment, all our computers are loaded with the Office software, minus reference materials. In the beginning, not all of us were fully comfortable with the programs, and I was one of them. I wanted a quick reference guide as well as a pictorial tutorial (the pictures helped me overcome my initial computer-phobia). YEARS later, this book continues to help my colleagues who now come to me for my "expertise." I merely whip out my book and show them, step by step. My book now shares space with my dictionary and thesaurus as my go-to resource. Since then, I also bought other Simplified Books on the Internet, Web Development, Powerpoint, Word, Excel, Windows 95 and 98. What a great series! Can't think of a better library of computer basics. Thanks for making it seem so easy, and so much fun!
