I'm pleased as punch!

Tom Negrino's book is all you will need to become a expert user of Keynote. Each process is broken down into easy-to-follow steps, including exactly which keystrokes are necessary. Especially useful are the many Tips and Screenshots that are included every chapter. I will be heartily recommending "Keynote for Mac OS X: Visual QuickStart Guide" to all of our Mac Users Group next week when I do a presentation on Keynote.
forget the manual
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Forget the manual, get this book instead, especially if you want to learn how Themes and Master slides are constructed. I run KeynoteUser.com and I was the tech editor on this book (I read every page, cover to cover). I also wrote the first draft of the chapter on building custom themes...all that to say I STILL learned things from this book while I was reading through it. There's stuff in there you just won't find anywhere else. And no, I don't get any royalties from the sale of the book (that all goes to Tom for his hard work), I just think it's something every Keynote user should own.
Wow!

An excellent book for a beginner to Keynote or a seasoned veteran. Very easy to understand and very well written. The book flows seamlessly form one topic to the next. Great book!

Like most Peachpit Press products this book is clearly laid out and is informative and easy to follow. Keynote is a great program but not intuitive at first - this book helps you get past some of the quirks and gets you up and running to produce killer presentations.
Negrino Keynote book a winner
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Tom Negrino's "Keynote for Mac OS X" is the equivalent of a product manual in regard to its comprehensiveness, but unlike a manual in regard to its clarity. The author breaks down every action that a user of Keynote might want to perform into steps for the purpose of explanation and illustrates everything with excellent graphics. The lay-out is user friendly. With even the best books of this kind I always find several things that are not thought out carefully enough and thus frustratingly obscure; Negrino's book is the exception. It made learning the ins and outs of Keynote a breeze and allowed me to construct a fairly complex presentation almost immediately. Finally, the author's style is engaging: the book is actually a pleasure to read!
