'Keep It Simple with Garageband: Easy Music Projects for Beginners' by Keith Gemmell is exactly what it says, a quick overview of the Apple GarageBand software. If you use an Apple computer and want to learn how to play with music -- editing, mixing, etc then this is a nice guide for the basics of how to do just that. Brevity is the #1 descriptor at 89 pages but this is doesn't necessarily mean a book is bad or not useful!

Concise and clear, if you want to get your feet wet with GarageBand and learn how to have more fun with music on your Apple, pick up this book and you won't be disappointed!!

**** RECOMMENDED

I am a music teacher, and one of the schools I work in just got a set of macbooks to do media projects. Well, this book is pretty much the curriculum for the garageband part. It's got step by step instructions, screen shots, and it goes at a good pace for the classroom. Great garageband resource!
