Customer Reviews & Comments
The book is organized well. Each chapter focuses on a specific skill set, with bite-sized lessons that allow you to practice using the files provided. While the book is okay overall, it falls short in two areas: 1. It's short on the "why," i.e. "Why am I using this tool to do this?" The explanations are limited to the scope of the particular chapter/lesson. It needs a broader perspective. 2. The screen shots and illustrations are in black & white. Not necessarily the best thing when dealing with topics such as color channels or using color to transform an image. Nevertheless, the book is good at teaching basic skills and techniques if you're not a lazy reader.
