1.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant by name, not by nature..., 24 Jun 2007
By Pedro (Kent) - See all my reviews
The author is proof of the fact that just because someone has done something, even loads of times, this doesn't mean they are necessarily that good at it.

The book isn't clear if it is aimed at entry-level users or above, but either way it is not a well written book. There is marked tendency from the start for the text and illustrated examples to be disorganisation, especially in how they inter-link and relate to each other. There is not always a clear link between a written point or example and the graphic.

The author also appears to have a very bad - and lazy - tendency to do something in one program (mostly Excel) and then presume that this applies to every other Office program, which is not the case. This is very confusing when you try to follow examples only to find that he is talking generally for tasks that are specific to one program. You need constantly to check the pictures in the hope it is one that makes it obvious which Office program he is using in order to be able to follow the book.

If you are new to computers, especially if you are new to Microsoft Office, or you just want a user-friendly, "start from the basics" book and don't want to or don't have the previous knowledge to do a lot of work yourself - this is not the book for you.

I have used Microsoft products for a good number of years, both at work and at home, and I have found the writer's style confusing and, eventually, totally exasperating. In retrospect I'd have paid double the price and bought Microsoft's own Office manual.

5.0 out of 5 stars Detailed, comprehensive, yet concise, 22 May 2008
By C. J. Tugwell (Sussex, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a Microsoft Office trainer of some 12 years' experience I found this resource invaluable. The contents pages clearly indicate the new features in Office 2007 with an appropriate symbol, as do the book's pages themselves- great if you are upgrading and quickly want to get to grips with the new features.

The layout is logical and well thought through and clearly maps the contents against the Microsoft Certified Application Specialist qualification. I was so impressed by the thoroughness of the way this book was put together and would heartedly recommend it to the more experienced user. Will definitely look to purchase more in this series.

4.0 out of 5 stars just the thing, if you want to know the diffs from older versions, 23 Sep 2008
By Fuddam (Surrey, UK) - See all my reviews
2 thumbs up from me, George!
as an IT Trainer of about 10+ yrs, I needed to get to grips with what had changed from the older versions, since clients are starting to ask about office 2007. Went through local waterstones, and this was clearly the best of the bunch (even though the MS guides were on 50% discount).
Does NOT go into detail, so better getting a bible or similar for a reference work, but as a clearly-laid out guide to the changes, it was excellent. Very useful, IMHO.
