    This book, clearly intended for folks with some Photoshop Elements experience, is totally PACKED with suggestions and how-to information. Instructions are very detailed and (so far, at least) absolutely correct. I moved from Elements 3.0 to Elements 5.0, using this book as my manual, and was up and running in minutes, even trying out some new ideas I hadn’t thought of or discovered before. It is clearly NOT a book to help the new software owner learn Photoshop Elements, but for anyone with some experience already in digital photo manipulation, it can’t be beat!

    Thanks to Philip Andrews for a truly excellent book.

    As an owner of a number of decent Photoshop and Photoshop Elements books, this one is pretty close to the top of the list. It’s very well organized, from the table of contents through the presentation of the specific topic of interest. Well illustrated also.

    What I also found valuable is that each topic/task has which version of Photoshop Elements it works with. So, even if you’re not a Photoshop 5 user, or will be upgrading soon, this would be a good investment.

    Two other highlights: 1) His treatment of RAW processing…very sane and easy to follow, and 2) presentation of the workflow for digital photography.

    Wait…one more! The guide on printing is quite good too. If you’re like me, you may be very happy with the picture, less than happy with the inkjet print. Good ideas on how to help here.

    Very impressed with this book. Highly recommend!

    I purchased the book because it states that you could get many of the test documents as a download. The truth is they are not available and if you go to the link provided, the page is empty.

    Other than that I found the book had good information but some of the procedures could not be followed because of the lack of access to the files.
