Book Review: Teach yourself VISUALLY
Summary: 1 Stars
I found this manual, like many I've used previous to this, to be very poorly organized. My first clue was that there is no glossary, like it is assumed that someone who needs a tech manual is fully fluent in the semantics of the subject. If that were the case, I wouldn't need a tech manual. The comic book format is, I suppose, great for a young student, but is a distraction to some one like myself who is just looking for easily understood verbal answers. Here's one, "The most important folders in the Mac OS are at the top of the hierarchical organization. Wow, that tells me sooo much about folders I'm still amazed. If I really understood more about folders and how or why to use them, it might be very useful. Perhaps when I know and understand more about my Mac, and I am able to customize and color code my e-mails and files, this manual may be very useful.
