2.0 out of 5 stars
Don't use the exercises!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Harnessing AutoCAD 2004 (Paperback)
While this book has some good qualities, the exercises are horrible!! Many dimensions are missing, making it impossible to try to do them with any accuracy. I would not recommend it.
3.0 out of 5 stars
What else did you expect? Telekinesis or ESP?,
By Lord Noctem (Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Harnessing AutoCAD 2004 (Paperback)
This book goes very well with the textbook. It's easy to follow and, though rudimentry, it does help one practice the functions of the program. Those just discovering Autocad will appreciate the program so much more by using these simple exercises.
1.0 out of 5 stars
My $0.02,
By "tjsqrd" (Denver, CO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Harnessing AutoCAD 2004 (Paperback)
The book is way too basic. The exercises are often incorrect/misleading; although, in hindsight, it was a fun challenge to find the errors, but very frustrating at the time.
