This is a excellent book that made Fireworks understandable to me. I tried an earlier version of Fireworks some years ago, playing with it and trying to figure things out for myself, but after reading the first 35 pages of this book, I learned so many more tips and tricks, I felt that the price of the book was well worth it. The book is intelligently written and easy to understand, and you are guided through Fireworks in a friendly and helpful, and thankfully not arogant way.

The book is written by an author that plainly has the desire and ability to teach the reader the "ins and outs" of the software. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn Fireworks MX 2004.

The text provides easy to follow step by step intructions for becoming proficient in the use of Fireworks. The font was of a large of enough size and the individual intructions were nicely separated in an ordered list. Easy to read and not skip a sentence or paragraph when looking back and forth from screen to text to screen. Very nice skills review and knowledge assessemt at the end of each lesson. The construction of the text as a spiral book allows one to lay it flat on your desk with holding the pages down. A great reference book as well. I recommend it.
