Book Review: Good for beginner - intermediate
Summary: 4 Stars
Very good tutorial step by step instructions for Photoshop. I was an intermediate user, and this has solidified my practice, and answered some questions I had about best practice. Comes with CD, perfect for anyone who wants to get started or brush up on skills.Book Review: EXcellent
Summary: 4 Stars
This explains 90% of photoshop's functions and abilities. The other 10% comes with practice and experience. I highly reccommend it.Book Review: Good for beginners, frustrating for intermediate/advanced
Summary: 3 Stars
I've been working with Photoshop for a few years now, but I was self-taught. When I got CS, I decided to work through a course book to catch up on anything I was missing.I did not get as much out of this book as I hoped. It really is aimed at the newbie who wants to create & edit projects ASAP, with little explanation surronding the tools they're using.
For example, you're directed to go to a tool in the Filter menu, check off these two boxes and enter 70% here, then click ok. There's little explanation for why you'd want to check those boxes, or why you'd enter 70 and not 38.
I think this is a good beginner's course, especially for someone who will take the time to go beyond what's presented in the book, and play with the tools to figure out what they do.
Book Review: a bit disappointed

I was so looking forward to mastering this program with the help of this book/cd lessons. But there is a problem with the cd, it does not have all the same lessons on the cd as in the book??!! I am now on lesson 5 with no clue how to learn from this chapter. The lesson on the cd is not the same one used in the book under lesson 5. I guess between learning from the book/interent/and searching thur both hopefully I'll learn this. I guess there is no way to contact the author, there is more than one lesson that is messed up in the cd compared to the book. If your not use to working in photograph programs..(like me)..I would not buy this book.
Way to many problems with the cd/book.
Book Review: There's good news and bad news
Summary: 3 Stars
"Adobe Photoshop CS Classroom in a Book" contains a wealth of information and well-designed lessons.
It also contains pages, however, which began to fall out by the time I had reached Chapter 3.
I would have been glad to spend an extra dollar or so for a product I could have referred back to time and again.
It's a shame to see this excellent content presented in such a shabby manner. Educationally, the book is well worth the price, but physically it is not.
