Summary: Very Balanced and Practical, Highly Recommended
Comment: Not only does this book present Photoshop 5 tools and features, the authors go the extra mile by providing background on topics like: Purchasing the right computer for Photoshop; Terms and Definitions; Setting Up PhotoShop 5; Color Theory; Choosing a Color Space; Tonal Correction; Linear vs Non-Linear Adjustments; and much more...

Rating: 5
Summary: It's all you need
Comment: I'll keep it short and sweet. I believe if you want to really understand PhotoShop for what it is, then just buy this and you are set. Blatner & Fraser are brilliant, when it comes to teaching and explaining Photoshop. I can only think of 2 books that every Photoshop user should have, this one and (forgive me Dave & Bruce) Ben Wilmores book.

This book is a godsend, can't wait for version 6.0

Summary: I keep going back to this book
Comment: If you use Photoshop, but you don't use high-level techniques, you owe it to yourself to get this book. This is not one of those books on how to do crazy effects, rather it's a tool for serious users to get the most from Photoshop's tools. This book takes you through each of the different features of Photoshop -- sharpening, color correction, making selections -- and teaches you things you thought you already knew.

P.S. Years after writing this review, and attending Photoshop workshops, I can attest that the information in this book holds up. The advice on topics such as color correction, making selections, sharpening, etc are still on-the-money and totally applicable to Photoshop 7, so if you can get this book at a big discount it may well be worthwhile.
