Editorial :
The language is non-technical. One thing that I didn't like about this book (and this is a complaint about the LL series in general) is that it is very difficult to separate which topics are general and which are very specific. I need to find out if this is a series! :) I am going to look for and read more of Suzanne Jenkins's book. (Oh, and by the way, I passed the Professional certification exam with a score of 90%, thanks in large part to this book!). This is an illuminating and fascinating, and beautifully written, book about reform movements in the U.S. It is hilarious, shocking, and heartbreaking all at the same time and could easily be the basis for a movie. A great coffee table book. typing a text command, selecting from a menu, dropdown, toolbar, or ribbon, pressing shortcut keys, etc.).
For a brief moment I was concerned this might be another of those `guided tour of the help file' books that insist on covering every arcane detail of every feature - but thankfully
