Rating:  Dynamic Learning-Photoshop CS3 This new book teaches the workings of the new Photoshop CS3, released on 16 April 2007. The book consists of 13 Lessons (chapters) and an index, in 349 pages. The first lesson describes the new features of Photoshop CS3, of which there are quite a few. Further lessons teach the use of Selections, Layers, Painting and Retouching, Filters, Smart Objects, and creating images for the Web, video, and print. The book is printed on glossy paper with illustrations and screen captures in color throughout. There are useful tables, such as the one describing all the tools, another on understanding file formats. Lesson 8 has a good Color Primer section which describes the RGB and CMYK color spaces. The DVD which comes with the book has all the images used the lessons, plus 13 tutorial videos (about five minutes each) corresponding to each of the lessons in the text. This book provides a well-rounded working knowledge of the Photoshop CS3 program, for the beginner.
