QuickBooks guide book

The following quote is from the cover of "QuickBooks 2009: The Official Guide."

"Intuit approved and loaded with secrets, this book provides you with recipes for financial success. Scott Cook, Co-founder Intuit, Inc..

Also the title says it all.

I never read the book by Craig, so i am unable to comment  on differences.

The Craig book is Intuit's Education Program lesson book. There is a student version and an instructor version. It has exercises in each chapter and includes a sample company data file on CD in the back of the book for use with the exercises; the instructor's book has quizzes and supplemental handouts. I teach using this book.

Kathy Iven's book is a reference manual. She provides good examples of how to do certain tasks. This book supplements the Help system in QB. It doesn't not have exercises and is not a student guide. It is a user's guide. I own this book; also the Biofore reference guide.

There are at least three other student books and a half-dozen other user's guides. It depends on what you want from a book, which one is best.

Quick Books Learning Guide 2009 is by Craig Who?

I can't seem to find it on Barnes and Noble.com site. Can you give me his full name. Thanks

A. L. Craig, published by Intuit.

The "QB in the Classroom" is the Instructor's book that goes along with the Learning Guide. They are the same except the instructor's book has quizzes and handouts.
