This series of books, developed by Lynda Weinman, encourages readers to learn by
doing. It's ideal for those who want to gain expertise in a new tool but learn best
using a hands-on approach.
Exercises for real-world situations
Hands-On Training™ books include lesson files on an accompanying DVD, as
well as instructional QuickTime movies to help you visualize difficult techniques.
Insider's perspective
Because these books are not produced by a vendor's press (like Adobe Press, Macromedia
Press, or Microsoft Press), they offer objective insight into the programs' weaknesses
and strengths, as well as solutions to common problems.
