Not great, but far, far better than trying to figure out Vectorworks without it.

Very helpful in learning Vectorworks. However, at least in the Kindle Edition, the images are too low resolution to read clearly (way too low), which is problematic because the text relies on them heavily at times to illustrate important Vectorworks settings. The author also often skips steps in the step-by-step instruction leaving the student to spend large amounts of time trying to puzzle out why something isn't working exactly as described in the text. I suspect that, in the author's tremendous familiarity with the program, he forgets to describe the little tricks and techniques he seamlessly uses to accomplish some of the tasks he asks the student to perform. This can cause quite a bit of frustration for the student, but, of course, once it's figured out, the student is far less likely to forget. It makes the learning process a little painful and unnecessarily arduous at times.Beware: There have also been software interface changes since this book was published using Vectorworks 2014 and Vectorworks 2015. Not a big deal, but sometimes things described in the text simply aren't there, or where they're described to be.

Reading it feels like the author is sitting there with you explaining it

Really handy step-by-step book to being using Vectorworks CAD. Reading it feels like the author is sitting there with you explaining it. Super useful illustrations/screenshots depicting everything covered.

This is a great book in that it takes this complex program and focuses on what we use it for in our industry. It dives into little tips and tricks you may have missed if you are an experienced user. The downside is there are a few places where the instructions become convoluted and hard to follow. The only way that I was able to make it through was to draw on what I already knew having taught myself the program over the past 7 years. There are places where the directions are wrong or the wording is wrong. I recommend cover to cover reading...do not skip or skim because you may miss a trick or two.The authors knowledge of theatre design and Vectorworks is unquestionable and there are a few tips on design as well.Hopefully there will be a 2nd edition that will clear up some of the confusion and this book will become an extremely valuable resource to both new comers and veterans.

Don't Buy The Kindle Edition

This is an excellent basic introduction to Vectorworks concepts and workflow, targeted for theater designers. The advice and instruction about drafting for entertainment design are top-notch. The two-star problem is that the illustrations of the drafting examples in the Kindle edition are so poorly compressed and of such low-resolution as to be useless. The illustrations are necessary to understanding the concepts being explained, but they are completely illegible. Defeats the purpose entirely. Buy the physical edition, instead.

Not what I expected

I found it difficult to follow. I didn't like the way it was organized.To me it was haphazard.To me a book like this is to explain things not in the manual, or perhaps to take you step by step,To be fair, I was mostly interested in the lighting part, so I was looking for a way to say, this is how you use it for lighting - and one could go to that chapter.
