Just Fair
The first time I went to this volume was for the "Insert File" command, which has been changed from previous versions of Word.

Guess what? No toc entry, no index listing, no nothing.Not under "insert," not under "file,insert"--nothing. Absolutely amazing. A basic command completely overlooked. How can that be?

I found the answer in the contextual help within Word itself.

This really can't be a "Special Edition" without the basics.

I'd give 6 stars if I could
Finally - a book that doesn't just walk me through the options.I can get that from Microsoft.This book provides tips, suggestions, workarounds, and practical examples of when/why to use a function.I have been working with MS Word for over 10 years - even teaching it on occasion.I learned so much from this book about why Word behaves (or misbehaves) the way it does.Understanding it allows one to fix it.

Bravo is all I can say!

Distinctly Differently Approach
A few years ago, I watched several webinar training seminars presented by Stephanie Krieger. I was extremenly impressed by her thorough knowledge of the MS software applications and her incorporation of document design / layout into her training approach. Ms. Krieger has incorporated these same design concepts into this book, along with suggestions for how to use the best software application for the job at hand. This approach was suitable for my particular needs / interests.

Microsoft Office for Word 2007
It is an encyclopedic work that explains the Word 2007 is great detail. It is very useful for the reader to expand knowledge of the many uses of Word 2007 and shows many things that otherwise might be bypassed or never imagined even to be used.

Using Microsoft Office Word 2007
After discovering how different the 2007 WORD structure was, searching and searching to do things that were perfectly obvious before, I decided to purchase a book. A few months later, I've found that this one has the answers every time. The index is detailed and specific, the text is clear and businesslike. I don't need lots of humor or chatty anecdotes, just a description of how to do what I need to do. The cover claims that this is "the only WORD 2007 book you need," and that's been true for me. It covers more of the bells and whistles than I will probably use working at home, but at least I'm sure it's ALL that I will need. ... Read more

Product Description
PREFACE THE compression of the last two thousand years of Pales tinean history within the limits of a single volume, presented numerous difficulties. Though in the introduction the remoter backgrounds have been lightly sketched, the writer avoided the pre-biblical and biblical periods. The archeological discoveries made in recent years and the prospective results of the ex cavations now in process, will have to be evaluated before a new and useful content of political, social and economic facts can be poured into the fixed outline established by the Bible and Josephus, Because no more than current comment may be applied to history while in the making, the temptation has been withstood to analyze and summarize the wealth of material accumulated since Palestine came under the British mandate. The literature on Palestine in all languages, is extremely numerous. In some respects the detailed information available is almost overwhelming in its minutiae. For some interesting periods, however, a small nugget of fact is the only reward for the patient sifting of tons of verbal ore Much that has been written about Palestine has been inspired by the reverent desire to establish the literal accuracy of biblical passages, whether they describe past conditions or presage the future. Many authors have speculated in the interest of some pet theory, and as many have yielded to the enticement of archeological dis putation. Hopeful of its future the author in 1900 sought for a useful, balanced history of Palestine. Kittos four hundred and twenty-six interesting pages contained less than, three pages devoted to all that happened in Palestine since 1291, Other periods were treated even more scantily. Munk, though a little kinder to the sixteenth century, was wholly fugitive in his vii viii PREFACE treatment of other periods. Episodic histories there were aplenty, but they began and ended abruptly Even painstaking archeologists cultivated this disjunctive and intermittent atti tude In all books treating of the country, the great blanks were between the third century and the Crusades, and from the fall of the Latin Kingdom to present times This treatment created a well-defined state of mind towards everything Pales tinean. A single illustration will serve In the nineteenth cen tury, a period of intense investigation, Palestine was largely treeless, its rocks exposed, and the land poorly cultivated To the pious this was evidence of the fulfillment of a curse. To the sceptic it was proof that the biblical writers exaggerated the land was infertile, and the country hopeless A third group accepted the Bible as accurate but speculated on climatic changes, and the drying up of water courses to explain the difference between the past and the present. The author had no preconceived theories To fill a blank in his own knowledge he devoted the leisure of thirty years to patient research and a careful study of the topography and his toric sites. The Palestine thus discovered differs materially from the accepted picture That the dry southland of Palestine once blossomed and sustained a considerable population, that Trans-Jordan is a ruin wrought by the Tartar horde, that just one hundred years ago Palestine had a period of prosperity will surprise the majority of readers... ...

The French painter Vlaminck summed up the situation admirably when he said La bonne peinture cest comme de la bonne cuisine, ca se goute mais a ne sexplique pas. We can only hint. His work is there for all to see. It is extremely unlikely that this book will convert anyone to the view held by the writer of this introduction that Jacob Epstein, almost alone in the world to-day, holds the secret of true beauty, and that his work like all things truly beautiful will endure without relying in any way upon fashion for its appreciation. It may well be that so positive a statement of belief at the very beginning of this study does my subject a disservice in the eyes of the reader not prepared to follow me to such lengths, or who may well already be in positive and violent disagreement with me. But I have reached my conclusion after very many years and a close study of all the work, and I am therefore unwilling to state it in a more INTRODUCTION subtle and roundabout manner, were that possible. There is altogether too much vague and incon clusive writing on art, and enthusiasm is too often carefully hidden under a mass of so-called technical jargon. I am not prepared to call every work of the sculptor a masterpiece, just because it is signed Epstein to do that would most surely infuriate the artist, and under such conditions this book would never have been written. But my position with regard to Epsteins vision is clear, and I stress it fully conscious of the risk of losing sympathy at the outset... ... Read more

Aron Nimzowitsch Aron Nimzowitsch or Aron Isaevich Nimtsovich (Latvian : rons imcovi s , Russian : ; born Aron Niemzowitsch and also known as Aaron Nimzovich ) (7 November 1886 16 March 1935) was a Latvian -born Danish unofficial chess grandmaster and a very influential chess writer. He was the foremost figure amongst the hypermoderns . Life Born in Riga in Livonia , then part of the Russian empire , the Jewish German -speaking Nimzowitsch came from a wealthy family, where he learned chess from his father, who was a merchant. In 1904, he traveled to Berlin to study philosophy , but set aside his studies soon and began a career as a professional chess player that same year. He won his first international tournament at Munich 1906. Then, he tied for first with Alexander Alekhine at St. Petersburg 1913/14 (the eighth All-Russian Masters' Tournament ). During the 1917 Russian Revolution , Nimzowitsch was in the Baltic war zone. He escaped being drafted into one of the armies by feigning madness, insisting that a fly was on his head. He then escaped... ... Read more

März 1935 in Hareskov bei Kopenhagen) war ein lettischer Schach-Großmeister und -theoretiker. Seine Eltern hatten in ihren amtlichen Dokumenten noch den Namen Nêmçoviç verzeichnet. Nach einiger Zeit wurde daraus die deutsche Schreibweise Niemzowitsch. Doch auch dabei blieb es nicht. Als Niemzowitsch nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg aus dem Baltikum endgültig nach dem Westen emigrierte, erklärten die Behörden bei der Ausstellung des Passes den Buchstaben 'e' für überflüssig, so dass aus Niemzowitsch nunmehr Nimzowitsch wurde. In diesen unsicheren Zeiten unterließ er es, eine Richtigstellung zu verlangen. Er wäre Gefahr gelaufen, noch ein paar Wochen auf seinen Pass zu warten oder ihn gar gänzlich zu verlieren. Für den Vornamen sind beide Schreibweisen Aaron bzw. Aron (letzteres z.B. als Buchautor) gebräuchlich. Nimzowitsch war der Sohn jüdischer Eltern. Über seine Kindheit und Jugend ist wenig bekannt. In einer Rigaer Tageszeitung veröffentlichte Andreas Ascharin 1896 (oder 1895) erstmals eine Partie des neunjährigen Knaben. Das Deutsche Wochenschach publizierte außerdem 1904 auf S. 213 eine Nimzowitsch-Partie, mit der Bemerkung, dass sie „von der Kombinationskraft des Führers der Schwarzen ein glänzendes Zeugnis ablegt".
