This one-on-one on InDesign manual is a spectacular resource for any designer, and particularly one just starting out.  The practical and useful tools included on nearly every page make this book a worthwhile investment and excellent source of expanding how-to knowledge.  

Every page is filled with information appropriate for designers at every stage of experience.  The Pearls of Wisdom are perfect troubleshooting snippets, and the tutorials are easy to follow examples of the possibilities of InDesign.  I highly recommend this book to anyone who uses InDesign.
