Excellent Reference (NOT Tutorial!) for AutoCAD 2008

I purchased this book to supplement the textbooks required for my drafting classes at a local technical college. The textbooks required for the classes where all designed as tutorials and I wanted strictly a reference manual as a complement to these books to look up AutoCAD 2008 commands, aliases, etc. (especially aliases as I prefer using the keyboard for command entry as opposed to menus or toolbar buttons). This book has been all I expected it to be, and has been and continues to be a nice resource. I have been around PCs & PC software for a while now, and this book reminds me of the command reference manuals that used to come with PC software back in the day - a straight-forward, alphabetical listing of commands, each with all the available options, etc. listed. Bottom-line is I would highly recommend this book if you are looking for a command reference. Otherwise, if you are looking for a tutorial approach, look elsewhere. For mechanical drafting, I would recommend The AutoCAD 2008 Tutor for Engineering Graphics - this was the main textbook for two of my drafting classes.

A Dictionary for AutoCad

Wasn't what I had been expecting, but IS a GREAT reference tool for AutoCad users. A quick way to look up "HOW-TO" if you need a memory jog. SERVICE from this supplier was GREAT! I was made aware of where and when the book was coming, and they delivered as promised! I would try to buy from this suppliers again whenever possible.
