Final Cut 3.5 
2008-01-12
Fast delivery; exactly as advertised. This is generally recognized as the best book to learn this software program. I have the previous edition and purchased this as a gift to help a friend who has the newer version of the software.
A great addition to the Apple Pro Training Book 2007-12-27
I purchased this to further my education beyond the Apple Pro Training Book and it was well worth the money. I was a complete novice to this app (although I have used iMovie with all the Slick apps for years) so perhaps a seasoned user may not rate it as highly.
Very Helpful 2007-12-02
this little book has a clear, concise approach for introducing Final Cut Express. Have been very satisfied with the book, very impressed with the information imparted and they style used for imparting that info.
Excellent book 2007-06-08
The book is VERY helpful and easy to read. Tom is also very active on the Apple boards so it's actual very easy to find the author of the book should you have a question not covered in the book.
The One To Get You Started

After collecting five or more books, manuals, and videos, this is the one that got me into seriously using FCE!

Go beyond the mechanics of Final Cut Express HD 3.5--learn how to edit with it! More than a button-pushing manual--this workshop give you firsthand experience with the art and technique of editing. You develop a working knowledge of this powerful editing application with eleven tutorials that cover each and every essential, including:
* setting up your system and understanding the interface
* getting your material into FCE and organizing it
* slicing, dicing, and organizing clips
* editing to build and trim a sequence of shots
* adding transitions
* using sound to refine your edit
* titling with FCE and Photoshop
* animating images to create engaging scenes
* adding special effects filters
* compositing to enhance your projects
* outputting your material
The companion DVD contains a video introduction to FCE that is especially designed for iMovie users. It compares and contrasts the two applications to ease the transition. The DVD-ROM portion contains project media, demo software, and free plug-ins for your use.
* Cover all of the essential editing processes from system set-up to outputting your material
* Eleven tutorial lessons give you firsthand experience with the art and technique of editing
