All the field guides are excellent, and this is no exception. The media is well done, the material is extensive and thorough, and the interviews are with experts who use this stuff every day.

It's really good for everyone approaching Markdown, especially for the abundance of screencast and the very simple language. On the other hand, it doesn't actually turn you in a Markdown ninja (as promised in the intro). Just a Markdown user.

It cover several tool you can use, but there is no in depth study of them, so you'll have to find out on your own what they "really" do, which pros and cons, and which is the best suit to your workflow.

Very cool if you never heard of Markdown, disappointing if you're looking for serious, "pro" stuff. They're not covered, just mentioned.

Very useful and comprehensive primer on Markdown. This is a perfect example of what iBooks is best for!

It's a solid and fun guide to using Markdown and also one of the best examples of how to make a compelling book with iBooks Author. I learned how and why to use Markdown and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
