Exponentially better than Macromedia's User manual

You'll be elated with this book's Complete coverage of Fireworks. It's abundantly clear the author intensely researched Fireworks, then painstakingly wrote, re-wrote, organized, and laid out this easy to follow tutorial and thorough reference.But don't take my word for it, take Lynda Weinman's. AFTER learning Fireworks and producing a video about Fireworks, Lynda Weinman (no slouch, herself) next read this book. She had this to say, "...many hidden aspects of Fireworks were revealed to me..."Buy it. You'll like it. Good coverage of rollovers and animations, handy visual appendixes of all textures, patterns, gradients, effects and brushes, thorough index, tremendous illustrations...sorry to gush, but this is a fine piece of work on Fireworks.
A excellent book for learning Fireworks

I think the Visual QuickStart Guide for Fireworks is a excellent book for those people who need learning a good program for web graphics. Fireworks is that program, and this book is the book you need. Is concise, very good distributed in chapters and ther is a lot of techniques for improve the work with Fireworks. The Visual QuickStart Guide are not the most complete reference for learning all posible, but if you have not any problem for discover the secrets of a software, i recomend this book. Easy to read and easy to find the solution for the trouble in wich you are.
Excellent Book to Learn Fireworks
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This is the second Quickstart Guide by Sandee Cohen I have purchased, and it is as well done as her excellent one on FreeHand. I actually read Cohen's book before reading the Fireworks manual and felt comfortable with Fireworks immediately. As a graphic designer, I don't have much free time to waste and this book made it easy to get up to speed with this new software. Cohen's streamlined writing style cuts to the heart of every Fireworks' feature. Buy it!
Very good, concise, no filler

Like other books in the Visual Quickstart series, this one is concise and to the point. It is not a tutorial on Web graphics and the descriptions offer very little embellishment.There are two handy appendices with references for shortcut keys and built-in effects/patterns/etc.For experienced graphics developers who just need a reference for this new application, this is a great resource. The book is simple, direct, and well-organized.The only drawback I've found so far is in the documentation of advanced features such as rollovers and animation -- a little more technical info would be helpful.Overall the book is useful and worth the money. Besides, it's the only book on Fireworks I can find!
