Reviews

"This is my fourth Adobe class using the Adobe Revealed books. These books teach by themselves. I joked many times that it's a waste of money to pay a school tuition for these classes. Next time I might just buy the book and work through it myself! Sample data files are plentiful and go along with the numerous step-by-step examples. Can't say enough good things about these books!"

"I used a shorter version of this book for a graduate level web class and liked the format. Wanting to learn more about the product, I ordered this book and love it's format. It's a very 'hands-on' approach and I'm a firm believer that the best way to learn is by doing."
