iMac 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).

About the Author
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. For ten years he was a contributor to the Berkeley Macintosh Users Group and editor-in-chief of the prestigious BMUG Newsletter. 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).
Hans enjoys writing about and playing with his multitude of Macs and other technological wonders, as well as hiking along the Pacific coast, cooking organic meals, drinking good wine and stout, driving his SAAB, and otherwise getting away from the digital universe. Hans is a photographer and digital image composer, as well as a typesetter and book designer, who lives and works in Oakland, California. If you'd like to know more about Hans, or better yet, tell him about yourself, you can visit his iMac on the Internet. Just surf on over to http://www.hanshansen.com, or email him at imacway@hanshansen.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.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
