The Windows Club"Don't be intimidated by this book's size. You're not buying a container for fluff and filler, believe me. Everything in this new version of Windows is explained in careful detail and with illustrations to show everything along the way. This is the kind of book to keep handy by your computer for reference, because it will give you confidence that you can do everything right. It's a winner!" - Marte Brengle, editor at
7 TutorialsNearly everything new to Windows 8 is covered in this book. Don't be fooled by other books that say they will give you "secrets" because there's almost nothing that they cover that isn't also covered in this book. -
How-To GeekFrom the Author
It took us about a year to write this book. We worked in parallel with Microsoft's development process and we have been testing Windows 8 since its first test version - Windows 8 Developer Preview.
Our aim was to create a guide that's useful, easy to use and understand about Windows 8. We put a lot of effort and passion into writing it and we hope this shows in each and every chapter.
Once you purchase this book and read it, don't hesitate to provide feedback, review it or place a comment. It will be very much appreciated and it will help us improve the way we write books in the future.

Review
Reviewed: October, 2012
Reviewer: Howard J. Cohen
O'Reilly sells this book both in paper and electronic formats. The electronic formats include PDF, ePub and Mobi. The website provides suggestions as to which version to use on various devices. I did the review using the PDF version of the book.
On October 26th, 2012 Windows 8 became generally available and the first computers using this new operating system are now delivered. For anyone contemplating upgrading to Windows 8 on an old computer or getting Windows 8 on a new computer, this is an excellent book. Extremely well organized the authors take the logical steps a new user should take to understand and get proficient in using this new Operating System. I would have given it five stars, save for the fact that the PDF electronic version of the book does not have "live links" for navigating to references, such as "See chapter `xyz' for more information" isn't a link to the chapter.
The book takes the reader through explanations of what Windows 8 is, what the differences are in each version, how it varies from Windows 7, etc. The authors then go into the setup and personalization of the operating system. Each step is very well illustrated with every chapter having a "Chapter at a Glance Page" and figures throughout each chapter. Thus you have a good idea of what each chapter will be discussing before delving into the chapter itself.
