Praised by instructors for its concise, focused approach and user-friendly format, the Illustrated Series engages both computer rookies and hot shots in exploring computer concepts quickly and efficiently. Information is accessible and easy-to-follow thanks to the Illustrated Series' hallmark 2-page layout, which allows students to see an entire topic in one view. New Learning Outcomes outline the concepts covered in each lesson, and larger full-color images help students visualize and contextualize ideas. Each unit begins with a brief overview of the principles of the lesson, and introduces a case study for further application.
