Denver Student said Bought for Class and Not Impressed. I do not recommend this textbook. It was required for my Engineering Drawing class. It appears to be compiled from a larger book - without much regard for order or clarity. References are incorrect, tables are missing, typos, pictures misplaced, and there is a general lack of complete definitions/descriptions. I DID learn some things from this book, but its formatting made the process much harder than it should have been. Definitely not worth the price in my opinion. Keep looking.. Mr. Greenjeans said don't waste your time. Our teacher told us on the first day of class that the book sucks. Well I'm here to tell you it's worthless with a lot of misinformation.. "My Outlook!" according to GAP. This is a great book, specs are displayed at both zoom'd in level to zoom'd out level. Great book for basic studies Direct measurements & dimensions are provided for basic structures (NOTE: USE BOOK for a quick research project).
