'iWork for Mac OS X Cookbook' is the 'missing manual' which shows users how to exploit iWork's full potential. Lesser known is iWork's ability to give users great design capability which is comparable to top-end programs such as InDesign and Quark. While Pages can open Word documents and be exported into Word, Numbers doesn't stumble over Excel and iWork documents can be created and viewed on portable devices.
With its word processing and design application called Pages, spreadsheet program Numbers, and presentation creator Keynote, the elegance of iWork is its intuitive behaviour which makes it easy to learn and popular with Mac users. IWork is Apple on a shoestring: iWork costs a fraction of the price of full creative suites and yet is packed with the potential to achieve the same results.
