Blog reviews
"In less than 300 pages and in a very visual style, it] provides both a great overview of Articulate's capabilities and clear step-by-step instructions on how to use every element of this software. What I particularly liked about this book was that fact that the three authors are clearly power-users of the tool and have supplemented the strict "how to" content with loads - and I mean loads - of personal hints and tips...This is a must-have book for anyone who uses Articulate - both novice and experienced users. I've been using this software for 5 years now and for me, it's now taken on a whole new lease in life."

"As a regular user of Articulate Studio '09, I was pleasantly surprised that after reading one of the chapters I had learnt three new things....I love the cross references to other parts of the book and find the appendix and invaluable time-saver - a plethora of useful information, checklists and workarounds."
