 2008-11-26 - Good but could be better
My college class uses this book.
The instructions, overall are good, but the tool icons are way too small to identify easily .
Some instructions will tell you to close such a tool out of the blue, but the instruction to open it was never given in the first place. Trying to see what the instruction was all about, one looks for that tool, in vain. The index was no help. Had to ask/email my instructor for help.
 2008-11-20 - More comprehensive than the "Dummies" books.
Adobe has done a very good job with their "Classroom in a Book" series. I purchased The "Dummies" book when I first started learning Photoshop 7. Then I took a college class that used the Adobe book (which is why I bought this book for CS3). Adobes' book covers EVERYTHING you can do with Photoshop, albeit briefly. Just follow the book and you will at least touch on everything the software can do. I recommend it highly.
 2008-10-24 - Adobe Photoshop Classroom in a Book
This is well written. It was delivered quickly and in excellent condition and was the textbook required for class. Thank you.
2008-10-23 - Nicely guided introductory tutorial for Photoshop CS3
The book is easy to follow and tells you exactly what to do during the exercises to reach the intended outcome of the photos you are working with. It teaches you one thing then another, building as you go on with what you have done in previous chapters. It also comes with the CD-Rom of the contents you need for use with the book and exercises.

This is a wonderful book and I think it will be very helpful in the classroom.
