Summary: Sorry, you'll haveto buy your own copy
Comment: This book is very well thought out and written to be easily understood, whether you only dip in when you need help or read it from front to back. A number of techniques - thumbable chapter headings on the edge of every page, Notes, Tips, Related Solutions (saving visits to the contents or index) - all make this a book that is a joy to refer to.
Despite some glitches (eg. it's not until Chapter 4 that the diagrams match their comments - they're out of step by one), if you asked to borrow my copy I'd say, "Sorry, mine's in use; you'll have to buy your own copy."

Summary: Great introduction to Jaguar
Comment: This is a terrific book. It's about installing and using Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar not, as one person wrote here, about type and graphics. If one wants a type and graphics book, I'd recommend a volume covering those subjects specifically. However, the author does have a chapter on using fonts under Mac OS X, and how font managers work. This is something few books about Apple's operating system cover. Maybe that particular reviewer didn't notice, but I did. There are a few production errors, such as misplaced figures, but all in all, I recommend this book highly.

Summary: Beautifully written...
Comment: I don't expect computer books to be well written. I expect them to be straightforward and dull. Mr. Steinberg's book is a refreshing change. Not only is it carefully crafted for readability, but his subtle touches of humor are a refreshing change.
The book is a great introduction to Mac OS X Jaguar for users of the older Mac systems. It made installation and setup a breeze, and I welcomed the extensive troubleshooting chapter and the introduction to UNIX. The only quibble I have is that some illustrations in Chapter 3 are mislabeled, obviously a production mistake. The book is nonetheless a great read and extremely informative. Highly recommended.
