A real Piece Of Crap,
By Raymond H. "Sierra" (Detroit) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Introducing AutoCAD 2005 (Paperback)
This book is not worth the penny that they are selling it for used. It is the worst written text book in recent memory. Exercises are incomplete and hard to follow, where you have to guess at important dimensions and techniques. Not matter what it is selling for - save your money!
