Applying AutoCAD (R) 2000: A Step by Step Approach
This manual, in my opinion, is only good for a drafter making the jump from R14 to 2000. This manual is not meant for a person that is new to ACAD or for a person looking for an in-depth manual. There are too many subjects that are covered inadequately. Some subjects are simply dismissed. I realize that it is difficult to cover "it all" but this manual doesn't even come close. Basically this: If you want to get by and say that you've gone though the manual and you know this book, you don't know much. If you want to learn much more of "much", read the manuals written by Shumaker/Madsen. They're much more in-depth and informative. I do not recommend this manual unless you are making the jump from R14 to 2000.

Applying Autocad
Well written book. Chapters advance from basic concepts to more advanced applications of Autocad. The text, with the questions and problems at the end of each chapter will allow a student to self teach and master Autocad. It took me about 40 hours of study (from ground zero) to be proficient enough to make designs on semiconductor process equipment.

First Review
This book is written in a text book format for a course in AutoCad. It covers the basics well, and continues with explanations of 3-D, Autolisp. However the Autolisp coverage is limited. It is being used by one community-college for three beginning 1-credit courses in AutoCad 2000. Although it is a textbook in style, and has many excercises and problems, it has sufficent detail to be used as a self-taught stand-alone text.
