Customer Reviews

Good overall review of CAD

If you're getting started in the CAD design industry this is a very good overall comprehensive review.

Perfect experience, exact product.

The book is great. It has all the exercises that you need. It can be used to substitute for newer editions however this is not recomended. The chapters are completely different. You will need to borrow someone elses book and search for what you are looking for. It came as described; beautiful. Great seller.

Quickly becoming the standard

This book is quickly becoming the standard in the field of engineering and technical graphics. The book presents in a very clear and concise way, (sometimes in a longer manner than needed) both traditional and modern approaches to technical engineering design fundamentals and graphics: Hand layouts and drawing views vs. CAD software usage. The language of the book is provided in a clear and understandable way, which students can comprehend. There is also substantial instructor support materials for the classroom. At over 1000 pages, the book covers areas that may that be needed in a modern progressive engineering classroom, but they are available for reference. A big negative, the price for the students.

The most elegant book I have seen

This really is the most elegant book I have seen. What a better example of excellent technical graphic communications from the authors to any reader, than the magnificent design of the textbook itself !!!. This book, written in a clear and understandable language, covers everything you need to learn about traditional and computer-based techniques used today in real world companies, since more than never technical graphics communication is an essential area of expertise that will make you a highly competitive technologist.
