3.0 out of 5 stars
Useful yet annoying,
By GeoVizer (State College, PA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Inside Arc Info V 8, 2E (Paperback)
As advertised by the title, this book describes how to use ArcInfo 8.0. However, the number of wasted words and useless images kept me from enjoying it much. The book describes, in some detail, the three new modules of ArcInfo and gives a cursory overview of the old ones. The descriptions are sullied by descriptions of things that are too basic for someone trying to use a $10,000 piece of software (for example, What is a wizard?) by hyperbole (for example, "You will find this feature indispensable" - really?) and by poor page layout. Overall, I'm glad to have the book, but I was hoping for a higher quality product...

By A Customer
This review is from: Inside Arc Info V 8, 2E (Paperback)
I am most dissatisfied with this book. It is obvious that the authors and editors have not read-proof the text and contents of the companion CD-ROM prior to publication.The text is plagued with typos and errors and the exercises are incomplete. The author prepared a website with corrections for the exercises and still they got it wrong. Definitely, I recommend against buying this book. |
