Excel at Keyboard Speed
Shortcuts, Formulas, Lookups and PivotTables from Beginner to Advanced, with Google Sheets Equivalents
by Kapil Dev V
Every skill taught as a keyboard workflow inside a real task, not as a list of shortcuts to memorise. It starts with the shortcuts that pay back in a day and builds to formulas, lookups, dynamic arrays, tables, clean data, PivotTables and charts, with a practice task on one small business's data in every chapter and the answers at the back.
