This review is from: The Photoshop CS2 Speed Clinic: Automating Photoshop to Get Twice the Work Done in Half the Time (Paperback)
Since I was new to PhotoShop CS2, upgrading from years with PS Elements, I started with basic, highly recommended massive tutorial type PS CS2 books first. I had a "second tier" list of PhotoShop books for purchase consideration after I became at least semi-literate in PS CS2. This was near the top of my "second tier" book list - it should have been one of the FIRST PhotoShop books I bought!Sure, it's not the only book you'd need if you're a total neophyte with PS CS2, but I'd highly recommend even a newbie buying it right along with one of the more thorough, step-by-step tutorial type PS books ... Kloskowski's "PS CS2 Speed Clinic" is a must have, even if you are a beginner who is going to have to work with PS CS2 on a regular basis. While I couldn't have started to learn PS CS2 with just this book, you couldn't pry it out of my grubby mitts at any price - it's THAT good. Even as someone who has used PS CS2 for less than a year, Speed Clinic has been, and continues to be... Read more

This is a really different Photoshop book. It presumes you have a working knowledge of Photoshop and feeds you tips and tutorials to make you work more efficientlly and do things you did not know could be done. Matt K has a really good writing style, precise anbd clear, that makes things seem pretty simple even when the technique being discussed is complex. Very well illustrated too. Not for the beginner but highly recommended for the intermediatee to advanced Photoshop user.

Matt's best book yet!,
This review is from: The Photoshop CS2 Speed Clinic: Automating Photoshop to Get Twice the Work Done in Half the Time (Paperback)
I've bought nearly every one of Matt's books and this one is my favorite yet. He really found an important area in Photoshop that no one was covering and created a great book. Its written in a way that anyone can pick it up and get right into it. You probably won't use every single chapter (the scripting chapter looked cool but I'm just not that techie) but the beauty of the book is that you can pick up in any chapter you want (The actions, batch process, Creative Suite, and RAW chapters were my favorite). I'm one of those people who went from film to digital a few years ago and have been looking for a way to do things faster and this book has definitely helped out.
