The authors start off with information on how and where to take the test. You begin your lessons with a review of general Photoshop and digital-graphics terms and concepts, such as raster, vector, and path. Next you study the Photoshop work area and the History palette. Subsequent chapters teach you about scanning, image modes, selections, paths, painting, editing and retouching, layers, type, filters, channels, masks, color correction, file formats, prepress production, Web and video production, color management, and automating Photoshop. The writing is direct, informative, and factual, so you get a clear idea of what you need to know to pass the test.
To get the most out of the lessons in the book, it helps to have at least an intermediate-level understanding of Photoshop. The companion CD-ROM has files for some of the exam's sections, as well as review questions and answers for each chapter to help you monitor your progress. --Kathleen Caster

Quite a few errors but still useful,
This review is from: Adobe Photoshop 5.0: Certification Guide (Paperback)
This is the only book I used to prepare for the Photoshop ACE which I passed with no problems...but then I have been using Photoshop for a zillion years already :) Yes it does have quite a few errors but you should be able to spot them if you really go through the exercises (and know your Photoshop..and, uhm, if you are going to call yourself an Expert, shouldn't you know the program?) All in all it's quite useful but could have been edited a bit more carefully. Incidentally! If you use Photoshop on the Mac be prepared to confront a very Windows-centric view of Photoshop in the actual exam.

A very good book. Perhaps I can help to fix some errors. Here two: on page 516 the correct answer to the question 10 is c (not d as indicated); on page 526 the correct answer to question 3 is d (not c as indicated).

The chapters are very informative and there is an attention to detail. The sample tests on the accompanying CD ROM are a tremendous help. Also, there is a discount certificate that comes with the book that reduces the price of the exam (it is as if the book is free).
