This is a really good book. It leads you step by step on some of the functions in the revit program. The book was shipped very fast and was received in great shape as noted. This is a great seller.

The "Introducing Revit Architecture 2010-BIM for beginners" is a well-put together book. I am rating this book 4 star because it's a book I have be able to really understand and be able to refer back to often and get quick and easy feed back.

PROS:
What I found to be good about this book is, that it's in fact a beginners book, so the layout is very simple, organized and easy to follow. The placement of sub categories in each chapter makes finding the right material very easy. I liked that most sub categories have a step-by-step run through of the process with images (such as modeling images, as well as window box screen shots) that correspond with the process your going through.

CONS:
The bad part of this book is also the good part...the fact that it's a beginner's book. I have found on multiple occasions that I had trouble with a certain situation during the designing process that I referred back to the book and it only provided an overview of the process and suggested I get a more advanced book (go figure).

OVERALL:
Overall I'm am glad I got this book, it is helpful and very easy to follow, I am one of those people that have a hard time following text books so I was surprised at my ability to navigate and actually continue to refer back to this book on multiple occasion. The program its self is relatively simple to grasp especially if you have dealt with other BIM software's that do have as much and are twice as hard to figure out.
