 Best FCE Series Out There July 4, 2008
I bought Tom's earlier book on FCE 2, and it was the best purchase I've ever made for any of the software I use. Tom writes like an editor and an artist. He writes in a manner creative people can understand. Practical and to the point. I have been in the broadcast production industry for 28 years and I can tell you Tom is the real thing. If this book doesn't help you then you should find another hobby.
P.S. Ignore the idiotic one star rating. The book is in English.
Only book you need June 26, 2008
i could never have learned final cut without Tom's books, nor his generous advice on the Apple Discussion Forums.
I am ordering this immediately-Japanese or not!!
It's in English June 3, 2008

Admittedly my five star review is biased, but I would appreciate if you didn't rate and review my book based on a stupid mistake on the Amazon web site, which after some time we have still not been able to get corrected.
All the best,
Tom Wolsky
