From Library Journal
Peachpit's "Visual Quickstart Guides" is an excellent series focusing on highly visual software for both Macintosh and Windows. Uses for the software range from 3-D modeling with Ray Dream, to paper-page layout with QuarkXpress, to web design with GoLive and NetObjects. The approach is excellent for both self-learning and classroom work. The editors match great illustrations with total concentration on accomplishing very specific tasks and a minimum of extraneous discussion. My students love this series because the books are much less long-winded than I am.

Customer Reviews

Very good, but now outdated!
The 'Visual QuickStart Guides'(VQG) from peachpit press are my favorites when it comes to quickly catch up on basics of a new software (version). In most cases I know of, the VQGs are frequently updagted when new versions of a program become available. Unfortunately, this particular book has not been updated since it's initial publishing in 1998.

HotDog Pro is now in version 7, this book however deals only with Verion 4.
