Query: Pretty good, but there are definitely better resources

The long overdue book from the author of Welcome to Macintosh Multimedia (in 1994, a dragon's age ago in the computer industry) sets up projects and attempts to establish knowledge through "doing." It's pretty good, too, but in the end you know how to do the projects laid out nicely in the book and on CD-ROM. Much less effort was expended to guide someone in a complex endeavor that might use necessary skills and resources that this book should have taught. No doubt Mr. Neuschotz knows what he's doing; it's just disappointing that this book doesn't help others a little more to get to that level of skill or confidence.
