I found this book to be very informative. Granted, this book may not be for someone attempting to learn to draw without formal instruction; however, during my first two years of college I was a Graphic Design major and had difficulty grasping the concept of how to depict foreshortening. I was told by friends who are wonderful illustrators in the comic book style (which uses foreshortening quite a bit) that the concept is often grasped during an "aha moment." I experienced that moment while flipping through a copy I found at my office!While I do not own this book yet I am planning to purchase a copy for my personal library ASAP!
