 Plain Simple Microsoft 2010 August 1, 2010

This book is very informative, yet not overly complex for one to understand. The basics of the Microsoft 2010 programs are velly well explained and the illustrations make it easy and fun to learn even the more complex ideas. One of the best software books that I have ever read, and would highly recomend it to any beginner as well as the more advanced student who wants to learn and apply Miscrosoft 2010 programs.

For anyone looking to learn Microsoft Office in the easiest way possible, you cannot go wrong with this book. Printed in beautiful FULL COLOR, this book will show all newbies the ins and outs of using Microsoft Office so you can be creating amazing results in no time at all!!
The writing is tight, the pictures jump out at the page, and this is amazing. I simply cannot believe how much you get for so little money. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Access, Publisher, OneNote and more, it's all here.
Is this book for power users that want to learn how to do everything and anything in these apps? No, but that's not the target demographic here. If you want a book that will show you the basics and do it in an easy to learn way, look no further!!
***** HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Like the other books in the "Plain and Simple" series, this book gives straight forward instructions about how to accomplish various tasks in Microsoft Office. While I am an experienced user of Microsoft Office, this book still has given me several new ideas about how to use the program suite. It does an excellent job of introducing new features in Office 2010.
As always, the "Plain and Simple" books do not use a lot of jargon, but get down to the subject in a clear concise way.
Excellent Starter Book- August 13, 2010

Like the other reviewers have said up to this point this is a great book. As the cover say it is Plain and Simple. So if you're looking for something that will teach you Microsoft Office inside out then you should look to another book. This book will help you to get a basic understanding of how to use each of the Office Professional 2010 applications. There is more emphasis placed on Word, Excel and power-point than the rest. The other programs Outlook, Publisher, One-note, Access and just a general overview of how the programs work together compose the lesser portion of the book. I think that it gives and adequate coverage of the applications.
I Enjoy the very colorful pages that it has. It helps to make the learning go by faster. Basically the book is screen shots bullet points showing you exactly how to do things. If you are new to any of the programs you could get this book and it will help you have a good enough knowledge to increase your productivity. I have never used outlook before and this worked it out beautifully. I got my emails all set up and and my schedule all good. This program has wonderful organization helps and it looks beautiful too.
Pros:
Very colorful, pictures and great labeling.
Simple well thought-out explanations on how to do basic, commonly used tasks in all the Microsoft office professional edition.
Good index and table of contents helps user to quickly locate what they want when they want.
Overall book flow is great.
Book can be read from start to finish or picked up in selected locations so that the user can understand virtually any part without reading what has came before it.
Great price for what you get.
Cons:
Possibly too brief of an overview for some of the programs. If you are wanting a lot of details then this book may not be right for you.
If you're looking for a Plain and Simple guide to Microsoft Office look no further, but if you're wanting more details for a certain program then I would suggest looking for another book.
Excellent Guide! August 23, 2010

Plain & Simple is an excellent guide for non-techies who want to learn the various tools Microsoft Office 2010 has but don't want to read a thick manual or take a class. The book has quick guides & step-by-step guides with color illustrations. It's totally dumb-proof. I considered myself well-versed in Office Software but after purchasing this book, I learned a great deal more. It's worth the price.
