Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐The book is huge. It’s like a massive dictionary. The problem is, I still can’t figure out how to do anything I need to do in Photoshop! I wanted a step by step…..This is how you do this …….book… with steps and pictures I could follow and learn, but it’s actually for advanced users that already know what they are doing. Most of the (steps) to get from point a to point b are missing…I think I’ll go back to learning on you tube videos. I thought having a written book would be so much easier, especially since it’s suppose to be for (dummies)…….those of us to stupid to figure it out, but I guess I must be a real dummies for buying this book!!!

⭐A+ seller!

⭐It looks comprehensive and is easy to use. Good resources for the price.

⭐Good book and good price.

⭐Good resource book.

⭐Really great and super bargain too.

⭐I feel this book is mandatory for anyone using Photoshop. Granted I had some knowledge of Photoshop and the Mac OS before I started, I found this book easy to use, helpful for quick reference as well as in depth knowledge!

⭐Long read, but broken down well. Meets my needs for the present. Certainly cheaper than a community college course!

⭐It gives a good straight forward into to all the tools and especially what all the menu names do. All round it gives you a taster of what is in photoshop and more importantly shows you HOW to use the tools and what can be achieved with one. You can follow the examples easily with your own images and copy the effects. Nice and simple descriptions and generally all round very good. It is more for new to familiar users but also gives you the ability to let your imagination run wild and create your own images. Also it can be used to refer back like a reference book as it is very well laid out.

⭐Satisfactory.Though send-hand, very good condition.
