So, you’re a designer, and you work with Mac OS X. In that case, Jeff Gamet has a book for you. It’s a book that covers Mac OS X from a designer’s perspective. What you must think of is a focus on handling files in relation to printers, working with Image Capture, etc.

If that was all the book would cover, nobody would buy it. It’s not all. It has a good introduction to Tiger, a chapter that goes deeper into security with Tiger. It even covers third-party tools for designers, such as the Art Director’s Toolkit, but also things that you can buy separately.

Finally, the book compares aspects of Mac OS 9 to Mac OS X Tiger. The Print Center is compared to the Chooser, and more.

Frankly, I wondered why someone would write a designer’s Mac OS X book. Even after reading the book, I couldn’t find the answer, but that doesn’t mean the book is not valuable. It’s as good as any other good book on Tiger. Why you should limit yourself by calling it a designer’s book is still an enigma to me.
