Excellent book for beginners or reference for experienced!
As a computer instructor, I have gone through many books trying to find an easy-to-understand textbook for my beginning students. I found it in Ruth Maran's "Simplified" books. I find most textbooks on Office 97 too wordy and hard to follow. The "Simplified" books show you how to use each application in short easy steps with colorful illustrations. Anyone can learn how to use Microsoft ...

Great book, teaches Flash the way it should be taught
This is an excellent book, not just because its from a Canadian author. I picked the book up about a year ago but never gave it much chance. I finally decided that I wanted to learn Flash so I began to go through the book. In 5 days I finished the entire book and I learnt so much from this books style. Instead of the way alot of books are written, where you work on a project and apply a bunch ...

The Greatest.
This book is absolutely the best way I've seen to learn Office 97. Even better than a video. Very well thought out, very easy to follow, covers a lot of ground. This whole series is the best computer learning tool of any kind I've ever seen. Get this one first.

Good for Seniors
I bought this book for my mother, who is 76 and very computer-phobic. Having this book helps her believe she actually CAN use the computer!

Colorful and Helpful in Times of Strezzzz!
After buying several other computer books about Window 95 and 98, I was greatful to stumble across this book. MS Windows is great in many ways, but frankly I am having more than my share of problems understanding this whole system. This book takes me by the hand and gently walks me through a number of tasks that would otherwise leave me a bit baffled. I don't recommend it as the only book; ...

The Only Book You Need!
Although I consider myself fairly computer savvy, I know absolutely nothing about webpage development. Until now. With this book, I was able to create professional looking webpages in literally, minutes. This is my first and only book I've purchased about creating webpages. I can't say that other books aren't as useful, but I can say, that this step-by-step approach, is fool-proof. I highly ...

Quick and easy to find the tag you need.
It is exactly what I was looking for. I have VB experience but am new to HTML. The whole book is examples of code with screen shots of how a web page would appear. It even goes into creating classes, style sheets, and adding Javescript. It is a good reference for someone with experience (I have had developers borrow mine) and simplistic enough for a beginner. I definatly recommend it.

"A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words!"
For the inexperienced intimidated by big,thick manuals with lots of print! This book is a fantastic, visually-pleasing intoductory course into computers and the internet. If your learning method is by observation or "hands-on", this is the book for you! It is as if the illustrators are in a room with you answering your every novice question and at the same time "plucking out" that very piece ...

I love the "Maran series" books. They are very helpful for people who are not a computer genius, since they show instructions step by step.

Teach Yourself Microsoft Office 2000 Visually
I feel that this book is the best book for learning Office 2000. It is easy, but has a lot of information. I have never seen a better computer book, and I hope they make more like this. This book is for people who know older Office programs and those who are trying Office for the first time. If you really want to learn it fast and easlly try this book. This book does not waste words or your ...

Recommended for the Computer Challenged!
Okay my Dad and his wife are almost completely clueless when it comes to using computers. My Dad runs out and buys a new computer with Windows ME. (note: he was running Windows 3.1 on his previous computer) So I bought this for him to help out. He LOVES this book. So does his wife. Very helpful!

a Great guide for pc repair ! A++
I have checked several "pc upgrade" books which are in great details but vague. This one has only 225 pages and the best thing of this book is that it practically shows you with images rather than giving you more technical info to make it more complicated. That's why I found it so easy....! to follow. If you really want to learn how to repair or upgrade your pc, then save some money and buy this ...

Gifted
I bought this as a gift for my 80 year old Granny. She has told me on quite a few occasions how the illustrations and easy to follow lingo has helped her to get back on track and figure out all the little quirks that Vista has to offer. Let's face it Vista is a challenge and if this book can help an 80 year old figure it out I'm sure it can help you too!

More books like THIS!
We need many more books like this. Show it, don't say it! We are visual learners - human see, human do. This book proves that while a picture is worth a thousand words - skip the words! I'll take these pictures any day over some geek stumbling with sentence structure to mess up what is in the help section anyway. These are brilliantly crafted images that combine the power of a cartoon with the ...

Absolutely perfect for the beginner--a must!
This book cannot be overpraised. Through the use of step-by-step text and pictures, with expert use of colors, numbers, callouts, and what not, the book makes the learning process easy and pleasant. This is THE book for beginner--look no further! (Also the font size in the pictures is not so small that I have to use a magnifying glass, as I had to do with another publication of the same ...
