This is a great book for the amateur and professional.
First of all this is not one of those books you read from cover to cover. It has simple, easy to follow sections, nicely split up into little projects e.g. - how to change the eye colour, how to use the content aware fill, design a custom brush, alter depth of field, etc. One nice handy section is the how to make a contact sheet in bridge(never used that one before).
So, some basics and some more complicated things, presented in designer friendly sections. There is little theory, just straight to the point tutorials.
One handy point about the tutorials is it uses numbers and pictures of the menu or screen you are supposed to be on. Step 3 for instance, will have a corresponding No 3 on the picture, so you never have to hunt for the menu or button. Totally visual learning. A great time saver if a client asks you to do something and you can't remember how to do it. Also if you are a little scared of photoshop the step by step approach will guide you through. Remember though it is not a manual it is a tips and tricks book.
I have been using photoshop for a long time and I found it a good all round teaching aid and reminder of how to do the things I don't use very often, which is why I bought it.
Highly recommended

I`m a bit of a beginner when it comes to CS5 ,lets face it - its a huge piece of software.
This book leads you step by step in a clear and easily understandable manner , from easy to difficult tasks, making anything you choose to tackle ,very rewarding.Such tasks , would be out of the reach of most beginners without this guide.
This book would also appeal to intermediate users , and I cannot praise the author enough for the way that she has styled this book , colour photos and numbered steps are invaluable.
If you`re looking for an undaunting introduction to CS5 , then look no further - simply brilliant.

There are so many books on the market of this type, most are not well written and almost look as if they are designed to confuse, or at best assume you already have a supperior knowledge of Photoshop already! you don,t, otherwise you would not be buying a book of this type.
This book is different, well layed out, easy to read, doe,s not leave you it a pit of confusion and enables you to progress onto more difficult subjects to experiment on.
From only being introduced to CS5 Extended at the end of 2010 I can now cope with all the well layed out exercises and more besides
