Good manual let down by quality of pictures - By: J. Parker, 04 Jan 2009 
I have upgraded from Elements 4 to Elements 7 so wanted a manual to understand what was new / different. Unfortunately Scott Kelby's book wasn't availablein time for Christmas so I bought this instead. It is a fairly weighty tome & seems to cover most subjects well. The main shortcoming for me is the quality of the picture printing. On a number of pictures it is difficult to see the detail, or the difference between the "before" & "after" shots, which for a photo editing manual is a major drawback.
If you want a decent manual on Elements 7 this is fine, but if like me you want to seein print what to expect on screen I would consider other options as well.
FANTASTIC - By: Andrew, 12 Dec 2008 
Barbara's books about Elements are a necessary & sufficient condition for getting the best out of it. If you need to know it, it's there, & if it's not there, you don't need to know it.
