I have used "Classroom in a Book" on several software products and highly recommend it. New software can be exasperating but Classroom in a Book guides you step by step through it.

Very helpful! It is like taking a class! - 2008-09-18

This is a great learning tool for teaching about the Adobe products.It really does help to teach and explain everything.

The downside is that it really feels like taking a class, and I have enough of those already :)

I recommend this for anyone who really needs to learn the material in a class-like setting. It has lessons and assignment etc. but you can do them all at your own pace. Enjoy!

Unfortunately, I can't give a personal recommendation as to content, but this is required for our daughter's BS degree in Art. What a great way to purchase college texts and save money on the exorbitant cost of required college materials!
