Mr.
David Byrnes: CAD Systems Magazine (June 2000)"CADD
Primer is a fine introduction to the field of computer-aided drafting
and design. Its discipline- independent,
platform-independent and program-independent coverage has thing
for everyone, from the prospective Pro/E creator
on her Operating system digital computer
to the prospective FormZ designer on his Macintosh. And if you’re
no longer a "prospective" CADD user yourself, you probably
cognize person who’s starting out in the field. Do them—and possibly
yourself—a favor, and give them a copy of CADD Primer." Read

Mr.
Tony Zilles: Editor CADinfo.net magazine (Oct. 2000):“The
CADD Primer is an ideal book for high school or college-level study
of CADsystems. It is besides suitable for those considering CAD for
activity or hobby use but who are confused or intimidated by the technology
and the jargon that goes with it. The CADD Primer contains all the
information that really quickly becomes second cognition to those
who use CAD systems on a regular basis. Most "old hands"
knowing the information the CADD Primer contains over galore years.
For the new recruit, the body of "must-have" basic information
presents a great hurdle inside
itself, even as before learning a particular
CAD program and the discipline that you intend to use it with. All
the basic information anyone could need is available, accessible
and low-cost in the CADD Primer. Extremely
recommended.”

SASKATCHEWAN
school system, Canada: "Computer
Assisted Design and Drafting (CADD) is an essential element of drafting.
This resource introduces the common principles of CADD that apply
to all software system packages, whether it is AutoCAD, MicroStation or
Cadkey. Rather than being a how-to book, the resource is primarily
useful as a reference to key principles. Information can be knowing
simply about topics such as drawing dimensions, zoom in and zoom out, erasing
drawings, 3D modelling and plotting. Each topic has some line
drawings and uses clean and aphoristic writing. An index is included.
Recommended Use: Computer-Aided Drafting; Survey Course - Secondary
Level. Another Use: Design Studies" Link

to teach person with no CADD experience, the basic concepts of
