Iphoto 1.1 for Mac OS X: Visual QuickStart Guide

As always, he keeps its straightforward and simple...great beginner's primer to get you started with iPhoto. The irony is Apple should make free of charge a pdf manual ..... By the way, if you buy this book you can download a pdf copy from Adam free of charge.....and if you email him with questions, he's usually pretty good at responding!

Very useful in getting quickly to the matter of how to use iPhoto. There is enough information about how the program data is structured to be useful, but the real value of the book is in it's format and stuffed-full-of-info "attitude." I bought it, use it, and definitely recommend it.

I have the book for the 1.1 version (works for 1.1.1 also) and I think it is well-organized and info is quickly accessible. Many things in iPhoto are pretty intuitive, but some things (like extremely complex file and database structure!) are not. The book gives enough of a look "under the hood" to be comforting, but primarily concentrates on the user features of the program. Also, the author responded to a question I had via email. I thought that was a courteous gesture and he really helped me to understand a point in the book. I recommend the book if you want to get the very most out of the iPhoto program. Macs for Everyone!

And I took it home and it was useful, yea!Simple, short, very much to the point, this is a great reference as well as a beginning tutorial. I have used it to answer the many questions that didn't come up until I really started getting in-depth into iPhoto.So, it has depth, clarity, and brevity, admirable qualities all.It really contains all the info of the fatter books, but it's easier to access the information and all the screen shots really help.Cheers,BilFish
