Great for beginning to advanced users.  The first chapters guide beginners through the complex AutoCAD interface and commands. Yet the entire book is so thorough and complete that even the developers at Autodesk keep it by their PCs.

A Quick Start shows beginning AutoCAD users how to create CAD a drawing their very first day!

More than 150 tutorials use drawings collected from AutoCAD pros, giving students valuable, real-world experience.

DVD contains before and after real-world drawings, bonus appendices, freeware and shareware programs, the book in searchable PDF format, and a 30-day trial version of AutoCAD software.
