3.0 out of 5 stars Basic introduction March 14, 2012

By K. Robinson Sr.

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

This particular book is well suited for a beginner who wish to learn WordPress from the ground to midlevel. Once I've finish reading this books I still had to purchase an advance book on WordPress.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed November 30, 2012

By Bookie

Format:Paperback

I looked forward to using this book as a reference for setting up my WordPress blog - sadly my money was utterly wasted. I can only assume it is because of updates to the website, but the explanations and pictures in the book bear little relevance to what I see on my computer screen. As things stand, this book is useless.
