• Good for Just Basics
  This book is fine if all you want to do is basic spreadsheets. If cutting, pasting, basic formatting, or creating VERY simple formulas is all you need to do then this book is fine. However, if you are trying to do anything more complicated forget using this book. For instance, the section on creating Macros wasn't very detailed. In addition, the book is completely missing any explanation of how to use the more complicated formula functions (there is no mention of how to do any of the statistical functions).... more info

• Useless
  I foudn the book compleely useless and a waste of money. It explains nothing. After studying this book for two hours I was unable to do anything whatsoever in Excel. Look elsewhere.

• Gentle intro but no depth
  This is a good book for a non stressfull introduction, but there are few good hands on examples. I've found that by doing complex detailed step by step examples you can learn more faster. The learnkey.com website has a good excel class

• Outstanding "jump" start for those new or familari w/ Excel
  I used this book in lieu of sending a large group of our people to training classes. After doing so, the "help" requests for Excel went to absolute zero. Heck, I'm VP of IT and been working in spreadsheets since VisiCalc, and I picked up a couple of things.
