>From the perspective of Bruce Fraser and the usual gang of suspects associated with Adobe and Photoshop. It's an excellent book. I have it and am learning from it. But the information contained therein may not be all that some photographers want or consider important or essential. We don't disagree on the value of the book, only, it seems, on the point of whether it's ~the~ answer for some photographers. Recommending the book doesn't seem as though it answers the question of what any individual photographer may want or need.
Anyway, there's no need to go further in this discussion. We've both stated our positions, and I think they're clear. We seem to be looking at the subject from different points of view and though different eyes.
