Welcome to Word 2016 For Professionals For Dummies, a book that uncovers the truth about parapsychology and the people in Asia who hand-place sesame seeds on the hamburger buns used by Burger King. I’m not serious, of course. I’m just checking to see whether you’re actually reading this introduction.
This book goes way beyond the beginner’s user level when it comes to word processing with Microsoft Word. This isn’t a technical book, but rather a book geared toward the professional or anyone else who is serious about the words they write. Word is a powerful program, and few people venture into its more sophisticated levels. That’s sad because many of Word’s features can save you time and help you create a better document
Are you still reading the introduction? That’s really weird. Most people don’t even bother. In fact, they simply take the copy of this book that they illegally downloaded, get the information they want, and then go on Facebook and lament how the economy is crumbling. I love that story.
Still, I’m proud of you for continuing to read the introduction. Truly, it’s the best part of the book. That’s because this is where I explain how this book covers a lot of material not found anywhere else. Google? Forget it. I’ve looked. Those people who put “help” up on Google don’t know what they’re talking about. If you really want to understand Word, and create outstanding documents, you have the best resource in your hands right now.

Within each section are specific activities, complete with steps or further instructions that help you accomplish a task. Sample sections in this book include
