It concentrates on the activities that seniors are most apt to use, including email, the Internet, digital photography, music, video, and networking, and is appropriate for those upgrading from earlier version of Windows as well as those completely new to computers. Readers learn to customize Vista and to configure the desktop, sidebar, and hardware elements to suit their own particular way of working. Other topics covered include security and maintenance, Vista's applications and games, and additional sources of help and support.

We got this for my 82 year old mother in law when she got a new computer with Vista. She was able to follow it very easily. I looked up several things also. It does assume you have operated a windows computer with another OS as it makes several references to how this and that have changed in Vista but I still think it's a pretty good beginners book.
