This is a truely great book, the best software tutorial book I have come across - and I have read a few. What makes it so great? I am not sure, but it actually got me working in Illustrator, something the Illustrator 8 Bible (amongst others) was unable to do. This book was priceless to me. Don't be put off in any way by the deceptive simplicity of the lessons: if you are a beginner then this is exactly what you need, and as it covers the core functionality of the software is just as useful if you are using a newer version of Illustrator. I am doing some nice stuff in Illustrator and it was all down to this book. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Thank you, Raymond.

i was really intimidated when trying to learn illustrator on my own and this book was just exactly what i needed. it presents "homework" assignments and you are walked through step by step on how to recreate the "homework". the instructions are really easy to understand, the work gets a little harder and more involved as you work through the book. it was a TREMENDOUS help in becoming more profficient in illustrator and after i graduated from the book i have often reffered back to it and found exactly the information i needed to make my work perfect.
