From Inside the Book: | |
Customer Reviews & Comments Like the other reviewers have said up to this point this is a great book. As the cover say it is Plain and Simple. So if you're looking for something that will teach you Microsoft Office inside out then you should look to another book. This book will help you to get a basic understanding of how to use each of the Office Professional 2010 applications. There is more emphasis placed on Word, Excel and power-point than the rest. The other programs Outlook, Publisher, One-note, Access and just a general overview of how the programs work together compose the lesser portion of the book. I think that it gives and adequate coverage of the applications.
I Enjoy the very colorful pages that it has. It helps to make the learning go by faster. Basically the book is screen shots bullet points showing you exactly how to do things. If you are new to any of the programs you could get this book and it will help you have a good enough knowledge to increase your productivity. I have never used outlook before and this worked it out beautifully. I got my emails all set up and and my schedule all good. This program has wonderful organization helps and it looks beautiful too.
Pros:
Very colorful, pictures and great labeling.
Simple well thought-out explanations on how to do basic, commonly used tasks in all the Microsoft office professional edition.
Good index and table of contents helps user to quickly locate what they want when they want.
Overall book flow is great.
Book can be read from start to finish or picked up in selected locations so that the user can understand virtually any part without reading what has came before it.
Great price for what you get.
Cons:
Possibly too brief of an overview for some of the programs. If you are wanting a lot of details then this book may not be right for you.
If you're looking for a Plain and Simple guide to Microsoft Office look no further, but if you're wanting more details for a certain program then I would suggest looking for another book.
