Product Description
Review
'...It's billed as the book that should have been in the box. Quite how this could be physically accomplished we don't know, but It's impossible to disagree with the sentiment. The book does full justice to the four powerful applications that make up Office 2001 and would be perfect for all types of users. Barber and Reynolds have produced an incredibly well-written and well-structured tome. Both basic and advanced functions are dealt with admirably. It's one thing knowing how to do something, but another to learn exactly why It's good to use particular features, and surprisingly, this is done in a manner that does not irritate or patronise the reader ... no mean feat. Layout is excellent and pleasing to the eye. Over 400 screen shots are included, which really help understanding and rarely seem superfluous, as do the decent number of tips and box-outs provided. The writers appear genuinely to understand how people will wish to use Office 2001 and include sections that others may not have thought necessary ... for example, how to use a PDA with Entourage or import FileMaker data. All in all, an immensely useful and enjoyable read.' Verdict 5 stars. MacFormat, August 2001 - Editor's Choice 'One for the reference shelf.' Freelance Informer, July 27th 2001
Judy Haber, Fresno Mac User Group
Would recommend this book to anyone using Office on a regular basis. Both beginners and Power users will benefit from reading this well-written book

I had previously bought Mac OS9 The Missing Manual (also via Amazon) so I knew this was likely to be a good book and I wasn't wrong. The book is well written, clear and light hearted so while you will learn a lot you wont find it dull. I'm convinced these are the best books for the mac, whether you are a beginner or more experienced you will learn from them. Office 2001 for mac is a big package so I would say a good book like this is an essential purchase. I cant really fault it.

I started reading this book with considerable scepticism. I consider myself to be a pretty experienced and knowledgeable Microsoft Office 2001 (for the Apple Mac) user. To my surprise, I'd learned two useful things in the first ten pages - and that's just the introduction. The book is full of useful information it would take you ages to discover just by using the program. If you use Office, whatever your level of expertise, you will find this book indispensable.

This is a brilliant book - I can't believe how much I have learned about Entourage, and how quickly and painlessly the knowledge went from page to brain!
The writing style is lively and entertaining, and the authors clearly have a complete grasp of this excellent but complex suite of programs.
Ideal and worth every penny.
