 Not the most effective way to learn Dreamweaver January 5, 2009
My review is from my self-learning perspective versus using the book as a classroom text. Also, I have intermediate web development experience using Front Page. That said, I found this book to be a cumbersome and difficult learning aid, compared to video courses available. The book seemed to overly complicate using Dreamweaver, starting in Chapter 1 with a lengthy explanation of XHTML, which I found tedious and unnecessary. I found the vtc.com video course I took offered a much more practical approach to learning Dreamweaver than this book. The CD in the book is helpful but basically an adjunct to the book material.
decent guidebook December 21, 2008
This instructional book was for a Dreamweaver class I took, so a required text. While this book was decent as far as tutorials go, it would not be my first choice. The Thomson Course Technology series (I believe by Botello) was much more thorough and had a better layout for students.
 Simple and easily readable November 30, 2008
I am a complete beginner in website design, and this book is a godsend because of its simplicity. Following the tutorials is really easy and very understandable, without heavy html words and codes that somebody like me wouldn't understand.
That said, i think this book is not only for beginners but covers all aspects of Dreamweaver. A colleague of mine who is an expert in website development has recommended it because she needs it to develop her skills even further.
Great book to help understand Dreamweaver October 5, 2008
This book was a required text for my class...however, I would have bought it sooner if I had known how helpful it would be. Thanks!

The book I bought from Amazon was just brand new. Surprisingly, I got this was just half price of the price my school sold this book.
