This book breaks new ground by doing something for digital photographers that's never been done before--it cuts through the bull and shows you exactly how to do it. It's not a bunch of theory; it doesn't challenge you to come up with your own settings or figure things out on your own. Instead, it does something that virtually no other Elements book has ever done--it tells you flat-out which settings to use, when to use them, and why. If you're looking for one of those tell-me-everything-about-the-Unsharp-Mask-filter books, this isn't it.
