Summary: Before this book, I had written off learning solid modelling
Comment: I am reviewing this book after having completed working through all its excercises. It took me five days, working 4 to 5 hours a day. I am completely satisfied. This is the best tutorial that I have seen for ANY CAD program, let alone for solid modelling.
This was one of two assigned texts for a CAD Solids class that I took. The first text was more of a reference dictionary for the various commands and features- I didn't use it more than once or twice. On the other hand, this book is more of a programmed learning course and I read every page. In fact, I found myself refering back to this book for reference, since I now had hands-on experience now in actually applying the commands (as opposed to merely reading an obtuse, poorly written definition.) The authors of this book literally spell out every single mouse click and keyboard stroke step-by-step as you work through a fairly complex real life project.
As for the project, it is a fully solid modelled electric lantern. You build every single component in the assembly, both fabricated and purchased. Then, you unite them into subassemblies and assemblies. Finally, you are shown how to generate working shop drawings (details and assembly) from your models.
I have used 3-D and solid modelling programs from competitors. This book, and Solid Works itself, is far superior to anything else out there. This is the practical parametric and solids modelling program that the industry has been promising for the last 12 years or so.
Moreover, if you have this book and access to the program, then you don't really need an instructor.

Summary: Utterly Worthless Book
Comment: This is, easily, the single most useless how-to book I have ever encountered. It is merely a walk-through of a single, trivial example of one model construction. There are no in-depth analysis, no "why", and no mention of at least 75% of the features of the software...
Rating: 5
Summary: Good Exercise book
Comment: I am also very new to parametric design using SolidWork. This is my first year in teaching and working with the software. The tutorial helps and guides me through this book in a step-by-step process. Great examples and layout. I would HIGHLY recommend this book for all teachers. Your student will love it.
