Add to basketiMac Guide explores everything these great and powerful computers are capable of. It begins by first covering the iMac itself and its components. It then follows with introductions and techniques for exploring all the creative tasks and media for which the iMac is best. Each of the creative subjects covered is limited to an introduction; providing an overview with explanations of the terminology, some techniques for getting started, and some examples. The book concludes with practical issues that some readers may run into everyday (such as working in a cross-platform environment, networking a printer).
Hans Hansen is the author of five books on using Macintosh computers, including Zen and the Art of Resource Editing and The Tao of AppleScript.

Hans is a founder and the chief technology officer of Octavo, a digital imaging company specializing in high-resolution electronic access to rare books and manuscripts for libraries and institutions around the world (http://www.octavo.com).

Brad Miser has been living the Macintosh Way ever since he first glimpsed the mighty Macintosh SE (say, "that's a nice machine, but the screen is so small"). In the years since, Brad has written extensively about all things Macintosh. Brad loves to help people get the most out of their Macs, and has even been known to occasionally provide help where none is desired. He hopes that his books help people make the most of the best personal computer on earth.
When he is not "making pages," Brad also loves movies as well as any sort of gadget, which has resulted in a deep-seated fascination with digital video and a great appreciation for iMovie. By day, Brad is an engineer (who likes to write?¿you must be kidding) who develops technical documentation, online help systems, and other "stuff" for Mezzia, Inc. (http://www.mezzia.com). He has also been a proposal specialist for Rolls-Royce, a development editor for Pearson Education, and a test officer for the U.S. Army.
In addition to The iMac Way, Brad has written many other Mac books including Special Edition Using Mac OS X, The Mac OS X Guide, The Mac OS 9 Guide, The Complete Idiot's Guide to iMovie 2, The Complete Idiot's Guide to the iBook, The Complete Idiot's Guide to the iMac, and Using Mac OS 8.5.
Brad would love to hear from you about your experiences with this book (the good, the bad, and the ugly). You can write to him at bradmmiser@home.com.
