Customer Reviews

Great how-to book for PowerPoint 2007

This book was a HUGE help for me while learning PowerPoint 2007. It was remarkably clearly written and easy to follow. While I'm not a big fan of all the changes to the PowerPoint (and the Office suite generally), it's great to have a well-written guidebook for coping with the increased complexity! -Jon Boutelle CTO, SlideShare

Comprehensive, Easy, and Readable

I like this book because it's detailed, yet easy to read -- and makes difficult tasks seem doable. Ellen always gets deep into any subject she discusses, and these helpful details make all the difference. She tackles the all new PowerPoint 2007 interface well, and takes care to introduce all the new features in this version of PowerPoint.
