Summary: A Must-Have Photoshop Book
Comment: My interest in Photoshop is digital photography, and for me this is a must-have book. The information in this book has shown me how to quickly and effectively adjust colours in a digital photograph to optimize its appearance, and then how to selectively enhance the photograph even further.
The author works in the pre-press industry, so he prefers to work in a CMYK colourspace, and all the instructions in the book are for CMYK as a result. I work in a RGB colourspace, but it is relatively straightforward for me to convert the techniques given for CMYK to RGB. The only difference is that RGB doesn't have a black colour channel, so the one chapter that focusses on black is not as useful to me (converting to LAB colour does produce a black channel, however, so the advice given for the black channel in CMYK colour aren't confined exclusively to the CMYK colourspace).
If you want to gain an understanding of colour and means of using Photoshop to enhance and optimize the colour of photographs , then this book is a must-have.

Summary: The Book for Pre-Press Color Correction
Comment: I do agree with some of the reviews bellow about this book being a bit wordy, but color correction is a boring subject. I think the author ment to keep readers interested rather than babble on. Regardless, this book is the book you want to buy if you work at any periodical or graphics house in which you are preparing pictures for press. This book is not for people making simple web graphics. It talks about utillizing photoshop to make things look more life like on paper. I would like to add that colors vary from press to press, so don't rely to much on the colors he specifies. Rather use his techniques and your own experience to find out what colors work best on your press. This is a must have book for people who do any serious amount of printing on a professional press.

Summary: Even a non-Photoshop user should read this book
Comment: You're not a Photoshop user? So what? This book is also helpful to you if you concern about colors.
If you're like so many Photoshop users who only knew how to fool around with filters, let this book be your guide to the "left-side."
