Default question about syntax in a simple macro...

I just recorded the following macro:

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
' Macro recorded 11/3/2006 by df78700
'

'
Cells.Select
Range("A8").Activate
Selection.Copy
Workbooks.Add
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone,
SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
End Sub

I'm trying to select the entire worksheet and then create a new workbook and
paste all the cell values (not formulas) into that new workbook. This seems
to work fine, however, Range("A8") confuses me: obviously the range of an
entire XL worksheet is not one cell!

What am I missing here?
