Customer Rating:  
Summary: It does its job and teaches you PhotoShop CS2
Comment: The book does what it says and it will teach you Photoshop but the text can get a little confusing. For instance during the final projects and the end of the books some of the techniques they ask you to do are not to be found in this book nor could I find them in the index. Some of the steps it asks you to do are repetitive and have nothing to do with the task at hand.
On the other hand I have learned a lot about Photoshop from this book and I am now confident in using the program. I do suggest reading the text in between the steps seeing how that clarifies a few things for you. For what its worth this book is worth the price and is great for anyone wanting to learn Photoshop.

Summary: Enjoying this book a lot
Comment: This is a textbook I needed for a class, but I'm enjoying it anyway! There are a few items in here that seem to be done with less skill than the professor's method, but all in all, it seems like a good, user friendly book.

Summary: Great Book

Summary: Good text, poor editing
Comment: I'm half way through this book. Although I've used Photoshop extensively for some time, I have learned a lot in every chapter. The explainations, exercises and tips are all good. Unfortunately, the editing was poor (mostly little mistakes, but they waste the student's time). Also, the index failed me the few times I tried to use it.

Summary: Not as good as others in this series...
Comment: I was using Chris Botehlo's Adobe Indesign CS2 Revealed, which is an excellent, clearly written book, so I naturally bought this book when I needed to learn Photoshop. Unfortunately, Ms. Reding's ability to convey complex instructions is lacking. The instructions are very disjointed and confusing. With no particular offense meant toward Ms. Reding, I strongly suggest that she partner with Chris Botehlo when writing the next edition of this book.
