5.0 out of 5 stars Great for exactly what it says it is - for new users!, August 5, 2002

By	Leslie A. Davidson "Avid technical reader" (Southern California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am so tired of reading reviews on books by people who bought the book without reading what the author says about it. In this case the book clearly states that it is an introduction to the program, yet there are at least two reviewers who have given the book a low rating because it is below their level of expertise.

This is a wonderful book if you are new to DreamWeaver and want a really good foundation. DreamWeaver is deceptive because it is easy to use but you can find yourself with a lot of problems if you do not understand the basics.

Just thought I would put in my two cents,
Leslie

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't miss this one, August 23, 2002

By	W Phelps (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews

So many computer books seem to be written without any concern for reader. Easily understood detail seems to be lacking. Gaining the knowledge sought typically requires re-reading a chapter or topic many times, then experimenting with pieces of information to garner how the item really works.

Not this one.

Mr. Meadhra has provided a clear, concise presentation of the Dreamweaver MX product without the 'tech manual ' approach . Written in non-geek, understandable English, it easily accomplishes the goals of providing a MX quick start for the novice and intermediate user, and additionally, a product features and implementation tool for the advanced user.

From chapter one, then through the entire book, the material is covered in a logical, easy-to-understand manner. The sequence of material presentation follows the same steps the web page developer must use to get a project up and running. Chapters are laced with thoughtful illustrations providing a visual re-enforcement of subject being discussed.

Chapter organization is one of the items clearly planned. Each chapter begins with a one or two paragraph overview of the topic. This is followed by a couple of paragraphs explaining of the concepts behind the topic. (This point seems to always be missed in other writings). Then the topic is covered in detail.

Sidebars are used to provide HowTO, Tips, and Cautions. An absolutely great idea that helps avoid the dreaded 'I did what the book said but it doesn't work' syndrome. These items are highlighted throughout the book and are clearly presented.

One can tell Mr. Meadhra is a web site developer, he has all the bases covered.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent guide for newbies and intermediates, February 13, 2003

By	michael__v (brooklyn, ny United States) - See all my reviews

Simply put, this is a well written, easy to follow, informative and yet easy to understand guide to Dreamweaver MX. The author does a great job of conveying his message in a clear and concise manner. Just an all around great guide and actually fun to read. Highly recommend this to anyone starting out using Dreamweaver MX.
