Summary: Pretty Pictures, But . . .
Comment: I spent a couple of hours today in a hospital waiting room reading this book and came to this conclusion:

Mike Wooldridge and his family spent a lot of time putting the graphics together for this book, but not enough in writing and copy editing. There are better books that give more fulsome instruction., so look at some of the others and let this one just lie there, colorfully.

The one I am reading right now, one of the Dummies books, is better for my purposes. And maybe for yours, too.

Summary: John Nemerovski MyMac.com Book Review
Comment: Here we have dozens of well-illustrated examples of techniques and tools built into version 1 of Photoshop Elements, with basic instructions on how to use them. Elements is one of the best beginner/intermediate applications of all time.

Ironically, the software is so powerful and versatile that this colorful "Teach Yourself Visually" format can be a bit sketchy when readers need more details. If you work through the lessons and dig deeper within Elements, all will eventually be revealed. Experiment!

Teach Yourself Visually Adobe Photoshop Elements is therefore a "tip of iceberg" guidebook, assisting newcomers to feel comfy with Elements, and then by necessity encouraging them to be creative with the thousands of possibilities that this application contains. Repetition breeds understanding, especially when working with digital imagery.

Best suited to new users who learn via high-quality visual instruction.
