Teach Yourself Visually is great for its straight-forward numbered steps on menus, menu items, and photos. It is aimed at beginners to intermediate users. It does not cover video. On Demand also has numbered steps and adds subtle variations and "when do I use it" suggestions. It is a little harder for beginners and spans to high end users. For Dummies is for beginners and low intermediates but is skimpy on photos and illustrations. WOW Book trumps everybody with photos, explanations, and examples for beginners through pro photographers (includes Camera Raw and some video). It does not cover CS6 new features but it includes a DVD with some presets you may find helpful.
Comparison note: each number will be the corresponding discussion in that book
CS6 Teach Yourself Visually
1) Brightness/Contrast: suggests Dodge and Burn Tools for small segments
"Note: Increasing contrast can bring out details in your image; decreasing it can soften details."
Its the only book of these 3 that explains that the Auto Contrast button "converts the lightest pixels in the image to white and the darkest pixels in the image to black."
No explanation for the Use Legacy check box.
2) Levels or Curves: uses Image-Adjustments-Levels or Curves path
Explains the sliders very well but ignores the Options button.
3) Record an Action: has the steps for a straight record of series of steps but ignores the use of Insert Menu Item to bring up dialog box for inputing numbers.
4) Unsharp Mask: ignored
5) Clone Stamp, Healing Brush, Patch Tool, Clone Source: excellent before and after photos so little text is needed for explanation.
