The author’s first book Beginning AutoCAD takes the absolute beginner through a series of graded exercise which leave the student with a grasp of the main commands, and able to draw simple two dimensional diagrams. This book provides an ideal introduction to solid modelling, and includes sections on shading and rendering surface detail. As with Bob McFarlane’s other books, the tutorial-style presentation is particularly helpful when the learner has only limited access to specialist assistance.
