Book description:

Demonstrate your expertise with Microsoft Office 2010! This all-in-one guide is designed to help you practice and prepare for the four core Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) exams.
With the MOS 2010 Study Guide, you get full, objective-by-objective coverage for:

• Exam 77-881: Microsoft Word 2010
• Exam 77-882: Microsoft Excel 2010
• Exam 77-883: Microsoft PowerPoint 2010

Use the book’s easy-to-follow procedures and illustrations to review the essential skills measured by the MOS exams. And you can apply what you’ve learned hands-on—using the downloadable files for all the book’s practice tasks.

This book provides valuable information for someone who aiming to obtain a Microsoft Office Specialist certification.  I downloaded this in order to study for the Excel exam.  While a textbook is almost impossible to "enjoy" while reading, I would have to say that this book proved to be very taxing to read.

All in all, it did give the promised information.

I would rate this book 3 stars.
