Customer Reviews

Just Great for the beginner!
This is such a great book for the beginner who has no knowledge of the CS3 web applications. This book will guide you step by step and give you confidence. Thank you Joe

web workflows - a tangled web not for the faint hearted
I struggled with this book and found it hard to get myself interested. Starting at the beginning of the book i already seemed to have missed a few chapters. There appears to be some missing sections as a beginner. The problem here is, while i am new to combining the technologies and have limited experience of each i am far from being a stranger to technical books. This book is full of specialised language and to those not enlightened enough to understand you feel like an outsider. I read the first chapters but ended up putting on the shelf where it has not been looked at since. I will try to brave it again at some point but in all honesty feel i would be better suited to exploring the technologies and using a hit and hope style of understanding. Not for those with little understanding of industry jargon!
