Review:
I would buy this book again

The Adobe Photoshop Layers Book: Harnessing Photoshop's Most Powerful Tool, covers Photoshop CS3
I find this book very useful for working in PS CS3. It won't work with earlier programs since Layers have been updated in CS3.

Review:
Finally, a comprehensive work on Layers

I have a veritable library of Photoshop Books. When I read through this new book, I was really impressed at how well the author covered the subject matter. The exercises & CD made the book easier to follow and gave me a much better understanding of levels than I've been able to get from any other sources I've tried . I would recommend this book to anyone who is an intermediate to advanced user of Photoshop as a reference. . I would also recommend it to people just starting as a basic Photoshop companion book.
