In WordPerfect Suite 8 for Dummies, Julie Adair King fulfills that mission entirely. She covers all the applications, but rather than just skimming the surface, she goes on to provide a level of expertise unusual in this series.

King's wit makes her book not only useful but enjoyable as well. But even if you access the book only when you are stuck, you will probably find the information you need in the tips that appear on nearly every page. They cover the obscure, useful facts as well as the typical pitfalls for any particular feature.
