Robert, All you need to know is here: http://www.microsoft.com/office/publisher/default.asp And keep using Word for writing your books, although with Publisher could make some nice cover designs or advertisements for them.

I am a complete rookie and newbie on Publisher. If someone would direct me to a concise description of what it does, and what I can use for (Please, no more than 50 pages!), I would be very grateful. I have two books I am working on that I am doing in Word. Would Publisher be better for a project such as book writing? Thank you.
