Adobe Photoshop CS2 Classroom in a Book
Written by: Adobe Creative Team

Editorial Reviews:
Photoshop is one of those programs that's so cool you just want to dive right in and start creating–but by plunging in head-first, without any guidance, you're likely to miss a lot. There's a solution: With this book, you learn by doing, getting your feet wet immediately as you progress through a series of hands-on projects that build on your growing Photoshop knowledge. Simple step-by-step instructions, review questions at the end of each chapter, and a companion CD with all of the book's project files make learning a breeze as the Adobe Creative Team takes you on a self-paced tour of the image-editing powerhouse. This bestselling guide has been completely revised to cover all of Photoshop CS2's new features, which include advanced tools for digital photographers, such as a new Spot Healing Brush for correcting scratches or blemishes, and Smart Sharpen for fixing photo blurring. Photoshop CS2 also includes loads of new creative tools, such as Vanishing Point and Image Warp. This comprehensive guide starts with an introductory tour of the software and then progresses on through lessons on everything from Photoshop's interface to more complex topics like color management, Web graphics, and photo retouching.

Summary: Good
Comment: This book is always a great teaching aid to the very complex program of Photoshop. This book has lots of examples and various ways of completing the same task. Although the book is very wordy and covers a lot, one is still able to complete the examples and understand the information fairly easily.

Summary: Adobe Photoshop CS2 Classroom in a Book
Comment: I took an online Photoshop CS2 class from my local college and was looking for further Photoshop skills. This book reinforces the online lessons I received on the Introductory and Intermediate levels. Well written and easy to follow if you already have some knowledge of Photoshop. Very useful as a refresher book and applies specifically to the Photoshop CS2 application.
