Customer Reviews
This is the manual you wish Apple wrote.
As an Apple user since the early 80s, I’ve enjoyed the many features of the platform but Apple doesn’t do a great job of explaining all of its features. This book does that for you. It’s a must-read for any Mac fan. It will make your Mac purchase much more effective for you. FYI - I don’t know the author or have any connection to them or the publisher. I purchased the book like everyone else.
Useless
This book had nothing useful for me.
It is cheap. That’s my consolation.
At the time I was looking for a book on Sonoma 14 for MacBookPros, - October 17, 2023 this was one of the very few available digitally. If I could have seen the contents of the book I would not have bought it. But that was not available.
