Rezensionen / Stimmen
"There are stacks of guide books on Photoshop and I'd feared this would be another that is useful but impossible to navigate. The reality was a pleasant surprise, with the author honestly appraising some of the more esoteric features... The A-Z format is handy and the pictures, by and large, very useful. The appendices are simple and offer some explanations as to why the stated features should be used... of all the Photoshop self-help guides I've come across, Peter Bargh's book is the easiest to use"
