Book Reviews of Dreamweaver CS4 Digital Classroom, (Book and Video Training)
Book Review: User Friendly!
Summary: 5 Stars
Originally a happy GoLive user, I am now by necessity forced to migrate to Dreamweaver. I was not fully looking forward to this prospect. I was about to travel and figured I'd buy a couple of books to take with me and make my time useful. Sadly, I left this one at home and took another book instead. I returned home completely frustrated and very discouraged from the harrowing experience the other book put me through. It is true what they say: you may know your subject inside and out, but you may not necessarily be a good teacher. Many authors or on-line instructors assume way too much about their students' way of learning or past knowledge. They simply forget that not all of us are coding experts (or even desire to be). Like me, some artists need to resort to Dreamweaver out of necessity. Artists, as a rule, are not left brain ruled and most of us hated math with a passion in school (I flunked a few times). The other book I was using felt like Algebra 201 all over again!
Enter Mr. Osborn's book! After I closed the other book half way through, I opened this one. WHAT A DIFFERENCE! This instructor clearly knows how to teach. He assumes nothing, takes you by the hand, has diagrams for everything he is explaining, tools and all, and makes this otherwise Pythagorean enterprise more bearable for 'the rest of us.' Completely user friendly. Unlike with the other book (and some on-line tutorials), I have not yet had to Google myself crazy to make up for what was lacking. This book is quite complete in its instruction. While it may, as some other reviewer stated, not teach you everything you could possibly learn about Dreamweaver (I doubt any book out there does), it seems thus far to be doing quite a close call for me.
If you are new to CSS, or migrating from another web design program, don't miss this book!
