Apple's iWork suite consists of three powerful applications: Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. These three applications work hand-in-hand with many of the built-in apps and features of the Mac operating system, providing an Apple solution for those who want the power of Microsoft Office, but not the expense or learning curve.

Taking iWork to the Max teaches new users how to use the word processing, page layout, spreadsheet, and presentation functions of this suite through hands-on examples and screenshots. It also highlights special uses that are not usually described in competing books, giving our readers an edge in using the software.
