NOT for beginners
Not for beginners or the faint of heart. Instructions are often incomplete, sometimes entirely missing, and occasionally just plain wrong! Expect to spend a lot of time using Maya Help and other books to try (often unsuccessfully) to figure things out.
Rating: 3 out of 5
One big tutorial
Just like the description says, this book is one big tutorial. Everything mostly works like the tutorial says, but if you get stuck at some spot then that's too bad. Most of the time you feel like you're blindly creating something without the understanding of how the tools really work. I guess that's the problem with tutorial books though. Also has decent intro chapters on Fluid Dynamics, hair, fur, and clothing, if you have Maya Unlimited, else pgs. 675-771 are useless.
