This book is carefully targeted toward today's students. It is a balanced (CAD and CAM) text with up to date information on rapid prototyping, NT-based solid modeling systems and Web-related issues, all hot topics. Complicated mathematical terminology is kept to a minimum; instead, the concepts are explained in as intuitive a way as possible. Students are required to have a background only in programming, calculus, and matrix and vector algebra. The book is on the leaner side as the author feels that too many texts obscure the fundamental concepts with too many details.

Discovering AutoCAD 2009 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently purchased the book "Discovering AutoCAD 2009 (Autodesk Design Institute Press)" for a class that I was taking just for fun. I did not need the book, but my instructor felt it would be a good reference material. Because of this I didn't wish to pay full price. I found a used copy here on Amazon at half the price. It came to me looking like the last person seldom used it. In fact, the attached CD was still in the sealed envelope in the rear of the book.
