Title: Poor book or wrong reader?
Review: I used to be quite suspicious of "Complete Idiot's Guide" series (and "For Dummies" as well) and would never buy a book without prior browsing it. But in this case I was fully convinced by the excellent recommendations of the reviewers and the relatively high (i.e. actually low) sales rank. So, when the book arrived, I eagerly started to look it through for selective topics and ... at once got disappointed because of the lack or even absence of the important material. For instance, just several short lines are dedicated to the Sharpen Menu, and the Unsharp Mask parameters are not explained at all. As for Histogram Functions, considered to be one of the most important tools, they are not even mentioned. Incredible! What's up? Am I a wrong reader? Not a "complete idiot"? May be. I don't know. I'm just returning the book and discouraging everybody from buying it.
