Title: Too little, too simple & out of order
Review: I just found the book a little useless and the chapters way too short to really give you a footing on the subject. The thing about Photoshop is you really,really, need to grasp the concept and just a few pages can do more damage then good. Why a beginner would need to know how to export to Illustrator is beyond me. Color Casting is not even taught in most Photoshop courses. So rather then give a really good desrciption of the tool box and the pallets and show multiple examples of how and when they are used their off on areas that stray way to far from the basics.By page 107 the're are showing you how to build jpg. images for the WEB, but it takes months of other skill building before you can even begin to do that correctly.So there are points to be gotten from any Photoshop book but the list here never gets past 3. One of those is the fact it's in color. Save your money and get Elaine Weinmann & Peter Lourekas'Visual Quickstart guide for Photoshop
