From the Introduction:
"Welcome to Macs Portable Genius. This book is like a mini Genius Bar all wrapped up in an easy to use, easy to access, and eminently portable format. In this book you learn how to get more out of your Mac by learning how to access all the really powerful and timesaving features that aren't obvious at a casual glance. In this book you learn how to avoid your Mac's more annoying character traits and, in those cases where such behavior can't be avoided, you learn how to work around it. In this book you learn how to prevent Mac problems from occurring, and just in case your preventative measures are for naught, you learn how to fix many common problems yourself.
This book is for Mac users who know the basics but want to take their Mac education to a higher level. It's a book for people who want to be more productive, more efficient, more creative, and more self-sufficient (at least as far as their Mac goes, anyway). It's a book for people who use a Mac every day, but would like to incorporate that Mac into more of their day-to-day activities. It's a book for people who pooh-pooh the notion that Mac users are a cult, but if someone decided to start an actual Mac cult, they'd join anyway. It's a book I had a blast writing, so I think it's a book you'll enjoy reading."
Mac users are passionate and loyal and these books capture that same feeling in pedagogy and series style. Titles in the Portable Genius series are not comprehensive; instead they aim to provide readers with the most accessible, useful information possible by giving readers tips and techniques for the most used features in a product or software.

A handy smaller trim size makes it easy for readers to carry with them essential information on the hottest tips and tricks for their Mac. They'll find essential information coupled with savvy advice on everything from simple tasks like getting started, to intermediate information, and hip tips that cover how to use iMacs and related hardware and software.
