Excellent coverage of the basics of Photoshop

As an instructor, it is helpful to have a book like this available as a reference for my students. Each topic is well presented and the included DVD is a great bonus. This one is on my must have list. Jim Hoerricks http://forensicphotoshop.blogspot.com Author of Forensic Photoshop - a comrehensive imaging workflow for forensic professionals

Understanding Photoshop ... exactly

This is by far the best Photoshop book I have come across for beginners. As the description states: "teaches you the fundamental digital imaging techniques" ... "many Photoshop books focus on features, tools, or techniques, this book covers both the basics and delves into specific skills, tricks, and uses" ... "in a friendly style" ... "with a DVD-ROM" (excellent companion to book). In my humble opinion, that is exactly what it delivers. In fact, I was impressed with this book for those beginning in Photoshop as it delivers the key core skills (regardless of software version) needed to develop as a Photoshop buffin, that it is now one of the core books we provide our students at the start of their graphic design course. Highly, highly recommend it.

excellent book - well-suited for teaching

I have found this book to be very easy to understand. The DVD is a great companion, showing exactly how to do certain things in Photoshop. I am a college instructor and this is one of the sources I use to teach my students the ins and outs of the program.

I am enjoying the book very much. I especially like the CD as it contains a lot of hours of additional training. The book is easy to use and full of interesting information. I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to learn the nuts and bolt of Photoshop.
