Review: This book should be issued with every installation of Photoshop - Being new to Adobe Photoshop, I wanted something which would teach me the basics. Video tutorials are far and wide, and while useful, cannot easily be collated into one assembly. As a complete novice to Photoshop, I also found some of them confusing, making the whole prospect of mastering something as “complex” as an advanced photo-imaging software, very daunting and almost off-putting. Having said that, now I'm familiar with Photoshop, videos and articles make much more sense. That’s all thanks to this book, Adobe Photoshop: classroom in a book. Having gone through the entire book, I'd say this is a must-read for anyone wanting to learn Adobe Photoshop starting from scratch, and, in my opinion, should be provided with every installation of Photoshop. The authors take you by the hand and move you through each chapter, first making sure you can crawl, then teaching you how to walk your way through lessons. The photographs and images in the lessons are all very clearly labeled and correspond well to the nearby text, making it extremely helpful for someone who doesn’t know their way around the interface. There are mini questionnaires at the end of every chapter, probing your memory to see if you have learnt anything. What this book doesn’t do is blind you with the science of how images are manipulated focusing, rather, on getting the steps right in achieving that end. Directions are straight to the point with minimal digression, yet hold your attention to the end of the chapter. Diagrams of layouts are extremely well presented with precise indications as to where everything is on the Photoshop Interface. If I had to pick faults, I’d say some of the images you’re given to work with are bland and uninspiring. You are given seashells to move off a plate using Photoshop tools (?). In addition, if you are an experienced Photoshop user then this book may offer little. I happen to have bought both the CS6 and CC version of the paperbacks and aside from a few different illustrations and the few updates relevant to CC, the books are identical. These minor points aside, this book is thoroughly recommended if you have no experience of using Adobe Photoshop. Review: Adobe Photoshop CS6 Classroom in a Book (English) - Très bons exercices sur le CD, pour apprendre par la pratique, à son propre rythme. Dommage que l'on retrouve plusieurs exercices repris du livre Photoshop CS5

Boyo did I ever need this Book
If you've tried to teach yourself PhotoShop you're braver than me. I was taught one aspect of it, and it's complicated if you're not a computer graphics geek. I'm an artist and use it for photographs of my pieces, for promoting and cataloging them. Without this book I'd have bought a very expensive program without the steering wheel.
