This book helped me learn how to use Photoshop, and I appreciated being able to follow along with images that were provided online. It made the step-by-step instructions easy to follow. The one downside to this book is that it did feel like a series of steps, and I didn't understand why I was doing certain steps within the program. I like to know and understand the why of something rather than just memorizing steps, so this was the one downside to this book. I'll definitely be keeping this book and referencing to it in my future Photoshop adventures!
