'Photoshop can be daunting, photography even more so. To have someone expertly versed in both, presenting his knowledge here in a clean and clear manner, is a real treat.'
Marc Pawliger, Director of Engineering, Digital Imaging, Adobe Systems

...there are a few gems out there, and Martin Evening's Adobe Photoshop CS for Photographers is still the daddy of all Photoshop books...His latest edition manages to improve this already high standard, with a revised format that makes it easier to get to grips with the subject.
British Journal of Photography

If you own a previous version of Martin's book it's worth ditching and buying this as there are a lot of rewritten sections and the structure has changed with new illustrations. Basically the best just got better.

Reviews of 'Adobe Photoshop 7 for Photographers':

'For this reviewer the stand-out title from this current crop is Martin Evening's 'Adobe Photoshop 7.0 for Photographers'. Evening's offering eschews all the 'geeky' phraseology that mars the bulk of Photoshop books and instead focuses directly on the issues of interest to photographers... Definitely the 'daddy' of all Photoshop books.'
British Journal of Photography

'...if you own one book about Photoshop 7, this is the one to buy...' Rangefinder

'Anyone serious about using Photoshop needs to get a manual to demonstrate its depth and abilities. This is that book. Its writing and blending of images, and keywords embedded in the text, make you want to hold the book with one hand and try out the features with the other.'
Sunday Herald, The Nova Scotian

...a super intro to the digital darkroom from the photographer's point of view. Professional Photographer

If your goal is to expand your technical, image editing, and artistic abilities, then Adobe Photoshop for Photographers most likely will help you achieve the high quality results you desire. PC Create IT

'Among the references I consult most often is... Martin Evening's 'Adobe Photoshop 7 for Photographers', it offers outstanding information, techniques, examples from the author's professional photo assignments, and includes a CD with tutorials.' eDIGITALPHOTO

This is a very good book for any photographer who is interested in digital photography. Many photographers are now switching to digital with even hardened film users scanning in slides for archiving, re-touching or just being creative. Amazon.com reviewer

...book focuses on Photoshop from a photographer's point of view rather than from a graphic designer's. There are many tips for beginners and advanced users alike. Highly recommended for all photographers wanting to learn Photoshop. Amazon.com reviewer

The steps for just about anything you'd want to do creatively are short, easy to follow, and are accompanied by excellent demonstration photos. The book is in full color, which is extremely important given the subject matter. Amazon.com reviewer

I highly recommend this book to anybody who wants to take digital photographs and do artistic and wonderful things with them. Amazon.com reviewer

If you need to learn Photoshop, get the 'Classroom' book. If you want your photos to literally come alive in Photoshop and have that translated to your prints, get this book. You'll also pick up all of those handy keyboard shortcuts that make the process fly. Amazon.com reviewer

This is an amazing book... I came to buying this book from a recommendation and was only interested in looking at the colour management side to it, but I found myself learning SO much about the application itself. I now input my own photos and use the knowledge I learned from this book to print out wonderful photographs that I have manipulated myself. I RECOMMEND anyone (novice or experienced in Photoshop) to purchase this book, you WILL NOT regret it. Amazon.co.uk reviewer
