1.0 out of 5 stars Not up to the usual high standard from Adobe CIB, 12 Feb 2004
By M. Potter (Surrey United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having just bought Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, GoLive & InDesign) I also plumped for all 4 corresponding Classroom in Book (CIB) editions for the CS software. Having just finished the Photoshop Classroom in Book, I was extremely impressed - the Photoshop CIB edition was well paced, accurate, and takes the trouble to explain concepts as you go along.

I've just started the GoLive CIB and unfortunately, based on first impressions and what I've read from other users who've progressed (persevered) further, the GoLive title doesn't deserve to be in the same stable. The inaccuracies in the book are countless (go to the Adobe site forums, or search Google to read the accounts of other people), which makes the book very slow going. Some of the inaccuracies are minor, but some have you questioning whether you've done something wrong, whether there's a bug in the software or an error in the book. This doesn't instill confidence when you're trying to learn a new (and complex) peice of software.

The first lesson introduces many concepts and terminology without even explaining what they are (perhaps they assume you've read the user manual first - this wasn't the reason I bought a training book!). Anyway, I will battle on, but my advice to others would be to avoid this one until Adobe Press re-issues it having corrected all of the mistakes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Should be withdrawn from sale, 10 Mar 2004
When I bought Adobe GoLive CS Classroom in a Book I already had the C in a B titles for PageMaker 7, InDesign 2 and Illustrator 10. None of those three are great - largely due to poor editing, which lets many errors past - but all are servicable.

Adobe GoLive CS Classroom in a Book is by far the worst of the series: seriously flawed from start to finish; riddled with errors and badly structured. Given the methodically documented negative feedback on the Adobe User Forum, one would have expected an energetic response from Peachpit. Sadly, they have yet to publish even a list of errata.

I could not possibly recommend anyone buying this book - even though it is the only one on the market for GoLive CS.

1.0 out of 5 stars A book of Bugs, 25 Feb 2004
This book is a great disappointment. The software described in the book is nothing like the software you have on screen. There are so many errors in the book that you have to wonder if the author had ever actually seen or used GoLive. Once you realise this you can learn how to use the programme, but you spend a lot of time saying "no, it must be this way, I'll try that instead".

Usually I like the Adobe CIB series, but not this one. Avoid it if you can.
