Customer Review: As a fairly new user to the Mac and iPhoto I found this Missing Manual a valuable help in learning to properly use the application. I own 3 of the Missing Manuals and would recommend them to anyone.

He doesn't rely on humor nearly as much as in the Dummies series (which he used to contribute to regularly).
