Customer Reviews & Comments Wow! Finally, a book that doesn't try "to teach" Illustrator but instead teaches "how to use" Illustrator. The difference is so important. This book is a series of step-by-step exercises. You follow the author as he creates some very cool and complex graphics with Illustrator 10. So you learn hands-on. It starts simple with great introductions and gets progressively more challenging. And since the author is a great designer, you learn all his tips and tricks and techniques for using Illustrator. I teach a college class on graphic arts, and this is the only book I'm using for Illustrator. The students love the approach and they stay interested because the graphics are so interesting. Good job!
