If you're ready to go from blindly following step-by-step instructions to "Aha, I finally GET Photoshop!" this is the place to start. In these pages, world renowned Photoshop instructor and best-selling author Ben Willmore writes in his signature style–intuitive, crystal clear, and in-depth–helping you gain the deep understanding needed to master Photoshop's most essential features. Complex concepts like Curves and Channels are broken down into easy to digest metaphors and descriptions, and features new to Photoshop CS2–such as Bridge, Smart Objects, the revamped Layers Palette and Camera Raw dialog box, as well as the awesome new Warping and Vanishing Point features–are all covered in the depth they deserve, making it possible to quickly adapt them into your daily workflow. Whether you’re a photographer, designer, production artist or hobbyist, the knowledge you gain in this book can dramatically change the way you think about Photoshop.

10/02/2005: I buy most Photoshop books, figuring if there's just one or two good ideas in any book I'm ahead of the game. Of course, in many books there are dozens of good ideas. Photoshop has inspired a lot of excellent books, and a far smaller number that aren't very good. But if you're the least bit serious about PS Ben Willmore books are the best. For creativity, fresh concepts, practical uses, clear explanations, inspirational triggers and good writing, for me, there's Willmore and then everyone else. He seems to live in the program, but never forgets that the reason it exists is to make more creative, effective and better illustrations. You should also own McCelland, Blatner/Fraser, Evening, Kelby, O'Quinn, Margulis, Monroy and others, but you must own Willmore.
