Readers say

Would definitely recommend. I am newbie with excel. This is so wonderfully written, easy to understand and very informative. The text in which it is written is awesome, no faff, no pink and fluffy, no waste of time. Brilliant Book.

This is probably the best training manual I have ever read. I find most manuals too wordy and quite honestly tedious. Mike Smart wins outright on several points. Each main topic is broken down to lessons on two facing pages one advantage is that if you have a spare 10 to 15 minutes you can complete a lesson with ease.
