Reader Reviews:
Cheap and cheerful - apart from the price that is. (6/6 people found this helpful)
This is not what I would call a quality product.
The written text is from several authors and is in several styles. The content does not go very deep at all. If there was more than 20 minutes thought given to the whole book before just diving in and writing I would be very surprised.
The videos continue this poorly prepared theme, with Roblimo just feeling his way around the software, obviously without a prepared script, and without having practiced what he was going to do and say beforehand. In one of the videos he gets stuck trying to export graphics, and the video just ends with an error message on his screen.
If you want a quick surface skim, and can find a second hand copy for a quid then go ahead and buy, otherwise forget it; just have a play with the software, the book won't teach you anything more.
