5.0 out of 5 stars Dealing with organising CAD based work, August 15, 2000

By	Vittorio Caffi (Bergamo, Italy) - See all my reviews

I am an AutoCAD user, as an architect, and a CAD teacher. I have been teaching CAD for many organisation, such Highschool, University (Politecnico di Milano), private design firms. I bought this book when I already was familiar with teaching and using CAD, anyway it gave me new perspectives for organising my work, as a CAD user as well as a CAD teacher. It doesn't give you information about AutoCAD commands (you already have to be familiar with, so if you are an AutoCAD novice wait for buying it till you have basic AutoCAD skills, then buy it!), but it gives really good points on how doing a good use of them. This is why I definitely recommend this book, to people starting organising their CAD work as weel as experienced users.
