AutoCad 2009 Bible, 2008-06-22
If you want to receive a doctorate degree and you have the time, this is a great resource book to have as a reference. It is very detailed with examples learning the ropes with 2/3D AutoCad. The font could be larger for easier reading but that would significantly increase the number of pages.

The tool you need to learn a complex piece of software, 2008-03-29
My professional occupation have been in construction as a bricklayer, but now I need to re-educate me on the cause of health. Aiming to be an cad-operater I want to learn Autocad as well as possible. I enrolled in school, but found the books there a little short on the subject. So I got this book from Amazon in hope of pick up a little faster, and I sure did.
This book has all you need to know about Autocad, with the latest tools laid out in nice detail. I recomend it from my whole heart.
