I knew there were many features of Outlook that I hadn't explored, so chose this book to expand my knowledge. The simple, well-laid out format of the pages allows you to focus on just the information you need. You can read the book from cover-to-cover, or flip just to specific sections (as I did). The illustrations are very useful and informative. You'll be up and running in no time on Outlook with this guide. Then after you've used Outlook for a while, open up the book again and re-explore sections and you'll find even more useful features of Outlook that you can use to make it a powerful tool to manage your dailiy activities.
