"This book is the ideal companion for anyone new to the program, or who simply needs a quick point of reference when completing tasks and projects. The A-Z format is very helpful and enables you to find an answer to almost any question in a flash. There are handy edge tabs to help you locate your required letter with ease. A lot of thought has gone into the usability of the book, and it really pays off. The pages include before-and-after diagrams, flag up new features in the software and even provide links to the book's website for more in-depth tutorials. We found the step-by-steps at the front particularly helpful, covering 27 of the most common tasks you'd want to know about. Overall this a perfect aid to anyone who wants to improve their knowledge of Elements 5.0 with minimum fuss and effort" - Photoshop Creative
