Anyone learning photoshop for the first time, or upgrading to CS3, should get this book and read it through. Even if you are proficient in previous versions, this book opens up new concepts and introduces the reader to new tools, not available in previous versions of Adobe Photoshop. This book will truly increase productivity and improve quality.

Jeffrey S. Moore (Roanoke, IN)
This book and CD works very well by having you actually do the lessons from the CD so you practice as you read. This is an excellent way to learn. It has been very helpful.

I previously took a Photoshop class and really did not feel I had a very good understanding of the program. This book takes you step by step through th program. I think I learned more from the book than I did the class!
