From A Man Who Has Read 'Twilight'
For many reasons I banned reading this book. Working in retail with teenie girls barraging the bookstands demanding for the next Stephanie Meyer book was just annoying and made me believe these books were meant for the intelligently-deficient. A friend online said I ...

Great Book!
This was a wonderfully written book. I read it then passed it to my teenage daughter, who also loved it. Upon finishing this book I immediately started reading Breaking Dawn, which is even better than Eclipse!

Scott Kelby
New Riders Press, 2008
THE guide to navigating Lightroom 2.0
First I would like to say that if the book feels a bit like the first version, there's a good reason and it's because Adobe didn't remove features from LR2. There isn't a way to write a Lightroom book without covering features that were included in version 1. This ...
