I've been in the NLE arena for 8yrs now and consider myself pretty quick on the uptake. I finally got out of the M100 ratrace and into Avid...yahoo..This book is very well laid out and easy to understand, not an like an engineers book. It's great for going over the things that every editor should keep in the Noogan on top of your shoulders. However, for someone who's never touched an Avid system, and even worse, for a person new to NLediting, this is not the book for you. It doesn't cover some of the basics that are need, esp. when making the switch from one nle to the other.(like keyboard shortcuts) All in all though, i'm definitly glad i bought the book..it is truely for any editor to use.
Basic Book

This book is less of an in-depth look at the AVID software and more of an orientation to the systems and procedures of digital editing. It's well written and laid out - but if you're looking for more nuts and bolts about the editing software itself, this is not the best book.
