5 out of 5 stars Great book!   June 1, 2008
I do not like most bible based books but this one is very good. It gives several examples and gives very good definitions. I would recommend it as a reference to anyone.

This is a must have if you are new to 3ds Max! I had to learn and present a design within 5 weeks and this book really gave me the tools to overcome the challenge of learning such a difficult program. I would highly recommend it to anyone that is really wanting to learn the program! It was easy to understand and follow the examples they gave you. Thank you!


3 out of 5 stars Pretty Good Reference Book...   January 25, 2008
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

This is a great book if you want to learn buttonology, but it seems to lack in student projects and exercises. I certainly cannot recommend this book for beginners, unless you want to use it as reference/supplemental guide to other training material. The author goes in to great deal on the "how" but doesn't really explain the "why" portion as well as I hoped he would. Definetely go to your local bookstore and glance through it before purchasing. As for my rating, I gave it a marginal rating of 3 stars simply because I thought it to be average at best, but far from bad.
