So is it worth it?...depends on what u want to know. I am proficient in photoshop and know indesign to an extent, so certain tools, such as pen, brush, mask etc were easy to get to grips with. The book covers approx 50% of the programs features which annoyed me a bit. If u've used illustrator before, then i wouldn't recommend this book, it does go through new features such as live color etc, but i think u can easily read up about that on the net. I'm much more familiar with the tools and its quite a genius program once u get ur hear around it. My advice would be to get this book if ur a complete newby, even if ur a photoshop genius like me, the integration is amazing...but do also buy another book, maybe 100 tips or wow...which will be out in a few months, to really get the tools working for u...then start looking at online tutorials. Other than that, the tutorials are fun, the files on the CD are great, has some good sections on color management and exporting...oh and illustrator and flash are much more integrated then u think...i could go on!

The book contains 15 indepth (but not complicated) lessons which, if you done one lesson a day for 2 weeks, you'd be well on your way. I have the entire Classroom In a Book CS3 series and although I have finished all the books, I still go back and look something up! If your upgrading some CS2 it's maybe not worth it as the new feature you'd be able to find online. NEWBIES GET IT, EXPERIENCED USERS MAYBE NOT.
