Exploring Photoshop CS2 (A Designer's Guide to Image Editing with Adobe Photoshop, with CD)

I find this book to be very helpful thus far. As an older Graphic Design student I've noticed many software books are written for a younger crowd. A lot of steps are left out because the author assumes I've learned them in high school. We didn't have computers when I was in high school! This book doesn't appear to leave anything out and I've been able to complete each project easily and enjoyably. So far I've learned how to restore damaged photographs and to combine and transform other images. Very Fun!!!
