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.

Summary: A little light on details
Comment: This isn't a bad beginners book, but that's ALL it is, a book for complete novices to Photoshop. The author doesn't go into any detail about the features and tools of Adobe's Photoshop CS. There's a lot of tutorials that show you how to do various tasks, but there's very little about why you're doing what you're doing. I suggest the Adobe Photoshop CS2 Bible.

Summary: Great Learners Guide...
Comment: I've spent the past 2 years teaching myself Photoshop and never really getting it. This book has well thought out lessons that allow the novice to learn as well as the average user to skip some of the details but still understand and learn new techniques. If you know a lot about Photoshop, you might want to shy away, but for the novice or casual user, this book is great.

Summary: Photoshop CS2 Text book
Comment: An excellent book for those beginning in Photoshop CS2. A CD is included containing the graphical images used in the lessons. Clear concise instructions. Easy to follow directions with examples to guide the learner.
