Summary: Colorful, Simple, and Easy To Read
Comment: This book is a must for people who are new to a Mac or new to an iBook. Even experienced users can quickly thumb through and find out quickly how to do something. Each page is in full vibrant color, with step-by-step instructions on how to perform different tasks on your iBook. It even shows you the instuctions in pictures. The pictures show exactly where to type or click! It features these instuctions on everything from installing memory, to writing an email message, to installing your airport card, and copy and pasting etc. It even features more advanced tasks like connecting to a network and performing a clean install of the OS.
I recommend this book to anyone who is starting out in Macs and needs an easy way to learn all the common tasks in owning a mac. Just a warning, this book is not really for Mac experts or anyone who already knows Mac OS really well.

Summary: Book Bytes is proud to give a glowing recommendation
Comment: March, 2000 Issue #59
Most people don't sit for hours reading computer books for enjoyment, but I do. Last week I was sitting in the sunshine waiting for a friend, thumbing through this iBook volume. My friend was late, but I didn't mind, because Lisa Lee's colorful images and text were so enjoyable. Speaking of color, each of the eleven chapters (or "parts") has its own color scheme, enabling readers to find desired content at a glance.
Within the chapters, tutorial material is divided into itemized tasks, which are titled in bold at the top of every page. The attention to high-quality design is evident throughout. Pages are split into large inner sections and more narrow outer columns. The inner areas contain numbered instructions and gorgeous graphics; tips and additional text fill the outside regions. Typical tasks are:
* Connecting Your Palm Device (Part 3, Task 7);
*Finding Files and Folders with Sherlock 2 (Part 5, Task 6); or
*Restoring Your iBook's Software (Part 10, Task 8). From these examples experienced Mac people realize that Easy iBook is not all "what is the Finder?" or similar newbie stuff.
Beginners will immediately feel comfortable with the author's method and style of gentle, enumerated instruction. Working with a new computer and operating system can be intimidating, and Lisa Lee is an easygoing, if persistent coach. From "Saving a Document" to "Adding Memory" to "Editing a QuickTime Movie Using QuickTime Player," an extensive range of iBook and Mac OS procedures are covered.
The short-and-sweet approach means readers will need to go deeper for their continuing education. A full range of help is available built into every iBook, and many detailed titles are being published.
For total beginners and people who learn best from visual examples, Book Bytes is proud to give Easy iBook a glowing recommendation.
