This is an excellent book for anyone working with Adobe Creative Suite, or Production Suite, or any multimedia professionals. The tutorials are supported by a CD containing all necessary files. It's important that the user has Photoshop CS3 EXTENDED, in order to work with the video and animation files. If you have the program, purchase this book.Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended for 3D and Video

Worth the reading for me. Does not go into the medical aspect, only image editing. Very thorough and easy to comprehend.

Photoshop is probably the most common image editing program. Highly refined by Adobe. Yet Adobe is continually pushing the envelope on Photoshop's functionality. This book describes 2 important new usages. For importing and editing video. And for 3D animation. To be sure, there are certainly other packages that do these.

It looks to me that Adobe wants to encroach on their fields. Namely for 3D animation. If you are already in that arena, then the editing abilities of CS3 described here might seen ok but minimal. An initial effort. But keep an eye on Adobe. They may be doing something out of the Microsoft playbook. Where the first products are so-so. But then Adobe will progressively iterate. Easier for them to do this and get large improvements. Whereas existing products like Maya could face diminishing returns.
