Great All around book 
It is great for quick tips to be more productive. I have been using macs for about 5 years, and my knowledge doubled after i read this book. It also has a good amount of technical information including UNIX, which Mac OS X is based off of. I highly recommend for any mac user, new or not.
Hard to read 
Here's an example of a writing style: Under "Quitting Programs" the author writes "If I had a twisted and warped sense of humor, I'd simly tell you to quit applications by pulliiing your Mac's power cord from the wall socket. While this book has a lot of great information, it's very hard for me to sit down and read. (Luckily, I don't. ) There are, however, more sane ways to exit a program. . . " If you're like me, and this style drives you up the wall, try another book, because this book has examples like this on every page. It just gets tiring reading past the cute to get to the meat.

Photo examples really help. Excellent source book! Simply laid out, easy to read. VERY glad we purchased this after we bought our new Mac.
