I purchased this book expecting that it offered practical insights into SolidWorks functionality, as I was a neophyte user at that time and was hungry for a good reference work. However, the first third of the book covered very basic and generic drafting technique, from the importance of visual thinking to GD&T. These are the sort of things drafting students learn in their first year of college, and I was already very familiar with all these concepts due to my years of experience as a mechanical designer. If you are a recent graduate of a drafting program and have just begun using SolidWorks, this would be a useful book, and it's mainly for this reason that I gave it three stars. If you have any experience working in the industry, there are probably better aftermarket manuals available for the serious SolidWorks user.
