Product Description
No other AutoCAD reference guide is as up-to-date and provides such a rich range of useful detail for as many commands and functions as this comprehensive and popular resource. An ideal reference for beginners through advanced students as well as programmers and managers, The Illustrated AutoCAD 2008 Quick Reference catalogs all standard AutoCAD commands in alphabetical order, concisely describing the function of each command and its options. Every listing includes cross-references to related commands, system variables and/or files, taking the guesswork out of executing AutoCAD commands to their full potential. Every method of accessing each command is featured, including commands not documented by Autodesk.

Excellent Reference (NOT Tutorial!) for AutoCAD 2008 December 18, 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 November 10, 2008
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.
