Review by Peter Bauer

A short, simple read, this is a good introduction to Photoshop CC.

It’s not comprehensive by any stretch of the imagination, but for

an overview of the program it’s okay. The promise that the book

“(c)ombined with a bit of practice, this knowledge will help you

edit like a pro in no time” is a bit overblown. A “bit” of practice

to “edit like a pro” sort of makes me think that the author defines

the word “bit” as “years and years.” Or perhaps he defines “pro”

as someone who has basic skills and can handle simple tasks,

such as cropping and standard color correction. The book does

include a link to a free download of a book about Photoshop

“hacks.” If someone you know doesn’t yet own Photoshop and

wants to see if it fits his or her needs, you might recommend this

book as an overview of the program. n
