Customer Rating: Summary: No learning, just "doing." Comment: As another reviewer had stated, this book just tells someone to do things without explanations as to WHY it is being done. The most critical component for any instructional writing in the technical realm must show the user what the purpose is for the actions. Screenshots are rare and instructions are not comprehensive. Find another book if you actually want to learn skills that you can remember and use later. Customer Rating: Summary: A complete waste of money! Comment: If you want to learn Dreamweaver do not buy this book. This is the required book for a college class I am taking on Dreamweaver- it is an awful book. No explanations, just lots of click here, do this, do that. They don't tell you why you are doing what you are doing. The instructions are unclear- I often cannot find what button or command they are referring to. Everyone in the class is having these problems. The instructor is having to walk us through all of the exercises that we should be able to do on our own with the book. I have learned nothing from this book. Customer Rating: Summary: The Web Collection, Revealed Comment: This book I have used in two courses so far and it has helped me quite a bit.It has also been easy to look back and find what to do if I have forgotten a process. Customer Rating: Summary: Great book Comment: Very easy to understand and it guides you step by step. Great for intermediate users. Customer Rating: Summary: Need For Class Comment: I needed this book for a class i was taking. Got to me fast and was in perfect condition.
