5 out of 5 stars incorrect title   September 9, 2009

This book is not an audio book as titled on your website, rather, it is a book with two DVDs of data and software.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent help   March 7, 2009

This is an excellent, very helpful intro to the basics of using ArcGIS (specifically ArcMap in my case). The ESRI documentation that comes with the software was not helpful at all. I was (painfully) learning mostly by clicking on various menus until this book arrived. By referencing the book and its many examples, I've been able to develop my material in a matter of a few hours after spending days making little progress. Expensive but worth it.


5 out of 5 stars Great book for ArcGIS!   February 4, 2009

Wonderful book to learn the basics of GIS. Includes software trial period and great samples to learn GIS functions.


5 out of 5 stars Great step-by-step instructions   October 5, 2009
Colleen R. Wells (Minnesota, USA)
I recently purchased this book to help some of my staff become familiar with GIS software, as we track all of our projects in a GIS database. One of my staff who had never worked with GIS has completed nearly all of the tutorials in the book without difficulty. Only on a couple of occasions has she needed assistance. I think this is a great introduction to GIS applications, especially for beginners.

The instructions are well written and easy to understand. I usually prefer to take a class so that I can ask questions, but I haven't had any quetsions so far.
