Introduction
Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information upon it.

The sheer size and scope of G Suite is enough to give even the best thesaurus a run for its money. Choose just about any “large” or “complex” adjective — massive, sprawling, gargantuan, labyrinthine, brain-bending — and it's bound to seem just right to describe the G Suite gestalt.
With so many features and settings in the G Suite package, and so many tools and technologies, you need some sort of guide that not only tells you what these knickknacks are but also shows you how to get the most out of them so that you can get the most out of your (or your company's) G Suite investment.
And that's precisely where G Suite For Dummies comes in. I've scoured G Suite from head to toe, rung its bells and blown its whistles, and generally just pushed the entire package to its limits to see what would happen. The result is the book you're holding (physically or virtually).
