This book is another of the fine Missing Manual series.
But, it is monstorous in size as it conveys the convoluted
MS Office. Sad to see a 4 letter extension feature for
documents that makes computing more difficult.

Clocking in at around 900 pages, David Pogue’s Missing Manual series releases yet another gem, this one focused on Office 2008 for the Macintosh! If you are a Macintosh user that wants to learn how to get around Office better or a newbie that wants to know all the basics of one of Microsofts flagship application suites (some would say THE Microsoft application suite) you have no need for any other book!! The Missing Manual series are the definitive texts for learning any piece of software. Written in a style that is accessible by nearly anyone, the MM line has been a bestseller for many years and will continue to be!! If you buy Mac Office buy this book as well to get the most out of Excel, Word, Powerpoint, the whole shebang!!!
***** HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Based on other Missing Manuals, I had hoped for more. It is not objective and does not tell any shortcomings of the Mac versions of the Office 2008 offerings. This would be nice because sometime you cannot decide if the issue is the program or you, the user. At this point, it is the only manual available. I am waiting for something from Wiley Bible series.

No doubt at all it should have been in the box!
Covers everything from installation, standard and options, user guide through to trouble shooting. First class manual at a first class price!
