Advanced only. ADT Goldberg ($50 w/o CD & no email support like Paul Aubin) opens the movie with you already overboard in 6 foot swells and no life jacket. It is advanced, highly cryptic for advanced ADT architects ONLY. If you need ANY SUPPORT AT ALL buy Paul Aubin who gives great free email. Goldberg was obviously highly edited to save paper. IT SHOULD COME WITH AN EXPANDED VERSION ON DISK with more complete tutorial instructions. Agree with all comments below, obviously the beginner below did not understand the advanced nature of this book. This book is GEARED FOR PRODUCTION not learning. We all work in a ridiculous "get a project out the door" environment, HOWEVER the book did get pubed to help us poor chaps that had to produce FANTASTIC accurate work in very short times for a real client(usually rich and wanting great value from the pro). Best buy VIZ by Paul Aubin also, which is an amazing book.
Highly Recommend

I have been working with ARD since its 2nd release. It is a very good program but it is hard keep up with all the new features introduced with each new release. With Mr. Goldberg's book I was able to quickly find new tools that were relavent to my work and they are very well explain in concise hands on exercises. I have quite a library of Cad and ARD books and have spent time and money learning the progam at colleges and through Autodesk courses. This book is the best in its field that I have come across.
