Summary: The reviews below are for the OLD edition.
Comment: I agree with the reviewers below that the older edition (1987) has very poor graphics. However, in trying to find out if this newer edition (2002) is improved, I was unable to do so since there are no reviewers of this edition. I do not understand why Amazon transferred the reviews from the old edition to this newer one. (Note that reviews below are dated before the 2002 publication date of this edition.) If anyone knows if this edition is improved (or not), please post a review! Thanks.

Summary: Landscape Designer
Comment: This book is used as a text book at several univerities and Community colleges. It is a basic text that alows a student to learn to draw graphics and symbols. The excersize in the back of the book are very helpful when first learning to draft graphics. It does not address computer graphics. If you want to produce those kinds of plans it is best to take a course in computer graphics. When first learning to draw graphics one has to start somewhere. This book does a great job!

Comment: If you are a student of landscape architecture, it would be in your best interest to stay away from this book. It is truly outdated. The graphics here are mediocre at best (at the time of publication). Don't waste your money or time on this style of drawing. Unless Mr. Reid publishes a new and updated How-to book, I would think that this book will be out of print (hopefully soon). It is critical that students learn to draw and draw well, both by hand and computer. This book will not help in either endeavor. If you as a student of landscape architecture use this book to learn to draw the landscape, don't count on working as a Landscape Architect upon graduation. You will be lucky to find a job as a janitor in the office building of a second-rate 2person; design-build; landscape design office.
