Derivatives Demystified: A Step-by-Step Guide to F&hellip by Andrew M. Chisholm
Finally a book that explains derivatives in a clear manner and supports the explanations with relevant and up to date examples. Excellent.

Having the foresight or the good fortunate of ordering this book with my copy of Manga Studio Debut 4 made my first dive into digital cartooning so much easier. The author, Doug Hills, makes the concepts used by the software easy to understand and even takes the reader through the steps of their first drawing. It is a first rate book and can be used with either the Debut or the EX (pro) version of Manga Studio. The only downside was that the directions did not always match the program's sequences but with some looking around it, the proper steps could be determined.

Manga Studio is all that it says it is and is great for the novice artist. It brings in the concepts of layers, sketch and finished work as well as tone and dialogue. It is a great product to work with and can be used with either a tablet or mouse. The downside is that the complexity that makes it a great cartooning product is not every well documented. The help available is limited and the tutorials that are available are out of date. I would recommend buying Manga Studio for Dummies, even though it is a version behind as well, to help the novice with the concepts and get drawing.
