Readers are given the chance to apply just-learned knowledge to a real-life exercise, drawing, or model. Level 2 is meant for advanced users who are CAD managers, full-time AutoCAD draftspersons, architects, or self-employed and must do everything themselves. The 3D material covers all aspects of AutoCAD solid modeling, including lights and rendering.1) Strips away complexities, both real and perceived and reduces AutoCAD to easy-to-understand basic concepts.2) Teaches only what is essential to operating AutoCAD first, thereby immediately building student confidence.3) All basic commands are documented step-by-step, meaning that what the student needs to type in and how AutoCAD responds is all spelled out in discrete and clear steps with screen shots added as needed.4) Using the author’s extensive multi-industry knowledge of what is important and widely used in practice versus what is not, the material is presented by immediately immersing the student in practical, crit

I found the book to be very easy to follow & full of helpful full-color screenshots & illustrations throughout the text, as well as exercises at the end of each chapter. These exercise. With hundreds of screen shots and helpful accompanying text - this is an impressive book ! With its hundreds of screen shots and accompanying narrative, Elliot Gindis' new book, "Up and Running with AutoCAD 2011: 2D and 3D Drawing and Modeling," will remind readers of being more like a workbook than a textbook - and, "that's a good thing"! This book, offered by the highly respected publisher Elsevier Science & Technology, with all the illustrations and hundreds of pages of narrative text, is an impressive work that surely took a few thousand hours of hard work to produce.Designed as a practical introductory text, Gindis offers readers a step
