Book Reviews of Google SketchUp For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech))
Book Review: REVIEW FOR GOOGLE SKETCH UP FOR DUMMIES
Summary: 5 Stars
THIS BOOK WAS EASY TO READ AND UNDERSTAND. THE AUTHOR WAS TOTALY HONEST, HE TALKED ABOUT THE STUFF HE KNEW, SPREAD OUT THE PRINCIPLES IN EASY TO UNDERSTAND CHUNKS, IF THE AUTHOR DID NOT KNOW SOMETHING, HE SAID SO, GAVE REFERENCES TO FIND OUT FOR ONES SELF.
IMHO, A PERFECT BOOK TO START WITH, '10', I NOW HAVE A PRETTY GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF GOOGLE SKETCH UP.
BECAUSE OF THIS BOOK, I WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT SKETCH UP.
I HONESTLY CAN'T THINK OF ANY NEGATIVES,
easy to read,
proper cartoons
good quality paper
no jesus stuff
good basic primer on the subject
price seems fair
great tips and tricks
good sense of 'oops' and how to fix them
the type was little bigger, made for less straining to read
the book was bound well, did not split any pages, I carried this book everywhere,
might want to include an interactive dvd, show something, then let the reader copy the action
also, might consider a coupon for a discount on the pro 6, I would take avantage of this offer

Book Review: Sketchup
Summary: 4 Stars
Sketchup is a lot of fun and this book provides the methods that are not immediately obvious and makes this application even more satisfying.Book Review: Barely useful
Summary: 2 Stars
The author tells you which tools to use, but not how to apply them. The book is more of an outline than a set of educational exercises or instructions. I'm finding Sketchup's help system significantly more useful.Book Review: Sketchup
Summary: 4 Stars
Like all "Dummies" books this is an invaluable reference work for a complex subject. This book is helpful for a beginner, just discovering "Sketchup" and also for a frequent user, needing a helping hand.Book Review: Essential for Someone New to Sketchup
Summary: 4 Stars
Chopra has written an excellent book. Good sense of humor, easy to understand, practical and well organized. Some of the "For Dummies" books are a little too cute. The writing style gets in the way of the information. That is not the case with Chopra's book. His humor and personality make the subject interesting. I am a beginner with Sketchup, but I think more advanced users will benefit from this book too because of the way the book is organized and the depth of the information. The book works as a reference as well as a collection of tutorials.
