Missing Manual - Snow Leopard
 
Review Date: April 27, 2010
Reviewer: Garraway, Wiltshire, UK
I have been a fan of the Missing Manual series for OS X since I changed from PC to Mac back in 2004. Having just moved to an iMac with Snow Leopard I have stuck with the series and have not been disappointed. Whilst all the information in the book is probably out there somewhere it is a great plus to have all this stuff sitting on a shelf close to hand. The shortcuts and 'hidden' properties that are in the book make it a real aid to faster and more efficient working. On past experience with my previous Mac I also found that when I had to do some emergency re-installation etc the relevant section in the Missing Manual was a great help, so regard having the current volume as good insurance.
Given my experience with the OS X series I have also invested in the companion volume on iWork.
everything i'd expected

Very heavy, comprehensive manual.
Starts from scratch so it includes EVERYTHING OS X which would be annoying if you only want a top up to Snow Leopard. But then it wouldn't be a proper manual if it did that would it?!
Excellent book overflowing with good info.

Reviewer: W. Copeland,
This is an excellent book - the author has taken the time to explain how to get the best from Snow Leopard in a simple, easy to follow style without treating you like an idiot. It takes you from learning the very basics right through to more advanced concepts - there isn't a better book on the market. Well worth the money and earns five stars!

As all the books from Pogue, also this one turned out to be helpful, sometimes even unavoidable to get along with Snow Leopard. The only "but" -it took me almost a week to work trough - it's quite long. I like the tongue in the cheek humor embedded here and there...
The inside track!

Usual very high standard. All sorts of information one would not normally expect, except from someone with an inside track on what makes Snow Leopard tick. Introduces you to 'hidden' features of the software.
