5.0 out of 5 stars nice resource, June 2, 2008

By	technomom (USA) - See all my reviews

A well laid out book. Nice photos, orderly info and directions. Paper and binding good quality, so the book lays open conveniently--no fighting to keep pages open while you use it as a reference! Covers all (or at least most) bases well, with clearly-stated directions.

4.0 out of 5 stars A rewarding experience, December 29, 2008

By	Alfred Wiedermann (Tel-Aviv,Israel) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Steve Johnson's guide to Photoshop Elements 6 is concise, explicit, adequately illustrated and free of cheap humor. The language is clear, the tips, suggestions and recommendations - as well as the Keyboard shortcuts - are useful and eventual repetitions are seldom noticeable.The graphic presentation is, overall,very good. Sometime, some of us, could benefit from an increase in the size of photographs used, in the limits of the available space. A practical,valuble fine book, indeed.
