Roxio Easy Media Creator 8 For Dummies is meant to be a simple reference to the major components and features offered in the Roxio Creator 8 Deluxe Suite (Creator 8 is also available in an Essentials and Standard version). If you did not choose to invest in this deluxe version of this suite, do not worry as you will still find you have access to all of the major applications and tools I cover in the text (just some of the fancier and more advanced options that are covered will be missing from your menus and dialog boxes).
About the Author Greg Harvey Ph.D. has authored tons of computer books, the most recent being
Excel 2003 For Dummies and
Adobe Acrobat 6 PDF For Dummies. He started out training business users on how to use IBM personal computers and their attendant computer software in the rough and tumble days of DOS, WordStar, and Lotus 1-2-3 in the mid-80s of the last century. After working for a number of independent training firms, he went on to teach semester-long courses in spreadsheet and database management software at Golden Gate University in San Francisco.
His love of teaching has translated into an equal love of writing.
For Dummies books are, of course, his all-time favorites to write because they enable him to write to his favorite audience, the beginner. They also enable him to use humor (a key element to success in the training room) and, most delightful of all, to express an opinion or two about the subject matter at hand.
