AutoCAD and Its Applications: Basics 2008

Although I've learned a great deal from Autodesk's Lynn Allen through her bi-monthly videos, this is a great book to take with you, read, and try out the examples using your Autocad software. An excellent tool for the classroom.

thanks, the book got here in good conditions but the corners were a little tilted.

I have used Terence Shumakers books for teaching for the last eight years. This latest one covering AutoCAD 2000 is no exception. It is one of the best books to teach from, excellent subject explanations and easy to follow samples exercises. I do disagree with the order Terence follows, but it is easily overcome and does not reflect on the book its self.

I have had a chance to review sections of this publication in our local library. I found that it is truly a well written book with lots of exercises and helpful hints for the drafting/design discipline. However, I did not find anything on 3D modeling. Perhaps, you can mention a similar publication (same authors?) with the 3D modeling feature, treated with the same details. Thanks for the info. Is this book available in Toronto, Canada? (bookstore please?).
