I am a new user of Photoshop and was absolutely overwhelmed when I loaded it and tried to use it. Step by step, this book walks you through how to learn and use this program through structured exercises starting with the most basic functions. It was easy to load the tutorial material on my computer and begin to use it. I have been able to create some pretty good photos by substituting my photos for the tutoral photos and following the lesson outline. For me, anyway, repitition seems to work best. Don't get in too big of a hurry to start doing advanced techniques or you might miss some of the basic techniques that are important. Good Luck

Easy to follow. Short lessons. I learned A LOT in a short time. Doesn't cover EVERYTHING the program offers, but it covers the big stuff and the rest is available online or F1. Minimal type-o's in the text. All-in-all, a great help and good to keep around as a reference.

I just bought this book as well as the Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 software (January 2010). Despite the fact that both products have just been issued, they are already obsolete. The software incorporates Bridge, a tool to manage photographs. The Classroom in a Book is integrated to use Bridge as part of the training. The problem is that Adobe have decided to stop supporting Bridge making the training provided completely useless. The software comes with Bridge so care must be taken not to install it as it tends to automatically open as you use Adobe Photoshop Elements 8. You then see a message saying that Adobe no longer supports Bridge so that they can put their resources to better use".
An odd way to run a business - advertising something that is no longer supported.
