This review is from: 3D Studio MAX 2.5 & 3.0 Training CD (Complete Support Training CD) (CD-ROM)

this is an excellent beginning for those interested in creating wonders with 3d studio max version 3 the only reason I gave only 4 stars is because of the lack of sufficient hard copy documentation for off computer reading)
