Customer Rating:
Summary: Very good book
Comment: This book is an excellent choice for anyone - beginner to advanced users of InDesign. I started using InDesign when the first CS came out and I learned plenty from this book. Excellent choice for the price.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Nothing you can't get from a Deke book
Comment: The book is okay. However, you can get the same information from pretty much any basic Indesign primer. I'm a fan of the Deke books, and I would not recommend this book as a primer.
The nice thing about this book, though, is how it indexes each technique. It makes a handy reference manual. For that function, it's just fine.
If you need an instruction manual, buy one. If you need a reference manual, buy this.
