Reviews

Though the recently released Office 2001 for Macintosh offers some first-rate new features like the Project Gallery, as Steinberg points out, it's only packaged with a six-page instructional booklet. Patrons, then, will definitely be searching for guides like this. Broken down into sections according to components (Entourage, the Mac version of Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint), this book covers each program thoroughly, with plenty of graphics. Highly recommended, as Office is the leading software suite, and Mac-heads are far from extinct.
