This review is from: Microsoft Office 2003: A Professional Approach, Specialist Student Edition w/ CD-ROM (Spiral-bound)

This was one of those, "must have for the course" type of books. I thought that I would use it later down the road, but I have already sold it. If you are trying to obtain a certification, this book will help. If you are just looking for general knowledge, you may want to look somewhere else.

This book is not for the "average" user. It is a whopping 1568 pages and weights over six pounds! The size did not scare me, but the wire binding did. I would highly recommend that you DO NOT purchases the wire bound version of this book. The pages are difficult to turn and the wire binding easily bends. This book has good content, but make sure you pick-up a non-wire bound copy.

If I could rate the structure of the book, I would give it 1 star, but since I cannot, I am giving it 3 stars because of its content.
