Book Reviews of Special Edition Using Microsoft Expression Web

Book Review: Complex Book For MS Expression New User
Summary: 2 Stars

When I read book tittle:Using Ms Expression Web, I bought it thinking it give me a clear steps by steps how to "start using" this application. I was wrong. The author "starts" in CH1 by telling you most of the tools you will be using are available in task panes , and he goes on in describing each of them. Please Mr. Cheshire I am a new guy in your field, and never saw or learned this application before. Though I am very familiar with Front Page, Dreamweaver and Flash CS3 Professional, it is very hard for me to follow this book. First, I was expecting to see on CH1 starts explaining "MS Expression Web Workspace" with "all the toolbars", "title bars", "folders", "task panes", CSS components,"Layers Area etc, etc, which would give me the full picture of all the components of this application, "and from which" I would be working on all the specific details and features in a progresive manner. For example, on CH2 he describes many ways how to create a web site but nothing specific on this matter. Unfortunately, I need something focussed in the objective, not something that keeps telling me there are several ways how to skin the cat, but one ends up confused. I will search for another book that would teach me specifically in a progressive and systematic sequence this application. I need information where I can feel confortable that I fully understand from the basics to the most complex issues of MS Expression. When I learned Differential Equations, I did it because I had progressively learned before all the fundamentals of math.
Once I reach that level I would get back to this book and integrate its information into my experience. I am sure the book has all the information, but for the time being, I will keep it as a reference.By that time I might change my review level
Thank you

?There?s definitely more to this book than just how to use Expression Web. The chapter on tag properties not only clearly explains Expression Web?s Tag Properties task pane, but it also alleviates some of the mystery behind the use of tags in HTML. This is a great book for all users of Expression Web!?
