Reader Reviews
I went through the first 6 chapters in a period of 2 1/2 days and I learned a great deal very quickly. He at times can be repetitive but his explanations will make you understand the concept the first time around. I'm usually not the type of person toon a book but I feel like I owe the author at least this. This book is definetly well worth the 25 bucks--more than that, really. If you don't know squat about CAD, this book is, without a doubt, for you.
