O'Reilly Released Adobe Photoshop CS 2 One-on-One

"Folks can do so much more with their digital photos than they think possible," states author Deke McClelland. "Happily, the latest version of Adobe Photoshop, CS2, is the best upgrade I've seen in the past five years. The possibilities are endless. Well, assuming you really understand the new features." McClelland applies his winning formula for learning new techniques in his latest book, "Adobe Photoshop CS2 One-on-One" (O'Reilly, US $39.95)--visual inspiration, projects seen through to completion, real-world solutions, and entertaining and educational video. Adobe Photoshop CS2 One-on-One includes over 850 full-color photos, diagrams, and screen shots to illustrate every step along the way. (The audience comprises visual thinkers, after all.) Plus, each lesson begins with a 10-to 15-minute high-definition video clip, which helps to introduce key concepts and commands. Readers will be inspired and empowered as they learn the new techniques that help transform and reshape their personal projects. [Bill Fox]
