For someone new to Photoshop Elements, Clarkson offers an instruction guide that is lavished furnished with comprehensive examples. The point is for you to get hands on experience with Elements, rather than just passively read a book on it.

Of course, this is aided here by the intrinsic nature of the subject. Very visual. So the text offers a tight feedback learning loop in the 30-odd example projects. None of these are that long to perform. The sum effect is to walk you actively through many of the capabilities of Elements.

Bought this book as something I could use in my class.
It's a perfect starting point for the beginner.
I use it for my students, with the authors kind permission, and they love the assignments.
Personally, I've even picked up a few excellent "assignments" myself.
The "smudge" tool assignment is worth the whole book.
So simple yet amazing.
And they loved it, too.
