Anyone who is serious about their Macintosh the OSX system will want this addition to the series. It explains all the updated features clearly and in plain language how to use the iPhoto program, something Apple fails to do. It also includes sources for software when iPhoto isn't quite enough. I found "Pictures and Portraits" to be what I'm looking for, because I wanted more layout options for my prints.

There is also a lot of information on how to take pictures and how to choose the right equipment. I already purchased my camera, but I found the information in these sections a necessary part of the book and served to make it more valuable. I've just basically skimmed the book to this point because I'm finishing up his book on OSX, but I find the style and volume of information to be on par with his other books. I can't wait to begin reading it and gleaning it for the "Gems in the Rough."

When you see this book, snag it up, as you won't be sorry you did.
