Summary: Not much help as a reference or tutorial
Comment: As a beginner to the GIMP, I was disappointed with this book. Its almost as if the author were "writing aloud" to you as he skimmed through the menus. It falls short as a tutorial, and it isn't nearly comprehensive enough to be called a reference. I found "GIMP - The Official Handbook" from Coriolis Open Press to be much more useful and detailed, and I suspect there may be other GIMP books which are better still.
Rating: 4
Summary: Finally a book about the new version!
Comment: I've been using GIMP 1.1.9 through 1.1.15 for a long time, and all the books I found dealt with GIMP 1.0.4, which is a couple years old and has fewer features and a different interface. I was really glad to see a book that will be current with version 1.2 when it finally comes out. This one has a great mix of introductory material and more advanced tips. It doesn't try to cover every esoteric feature that no one ever uses. If you want a comprehensive but confusing guide, the Gimp User Manual does that. But if you just want to learn how to use GIMP to get good graphics, this book does the job.
