I am a professional photographer who was looking for a reference book explaining the myriad of features available in PhotoImpact. Sadly this book is nothing of the sort. Shallow, incomplete and vague in it's instruction this book is a disappointment.The software itself is very powerful - it's a shame there isn't a book to help us take advantage of it's power.Guess I may have to buy Photoshop....if for nothing else, it at least has comprehensive documentation.
