I maintain a large library of Inventor textbooks, tutorials and how to, for the classes I teach.
This book is a great reference for new users as well as veterans.
Its clear concise information allows me to utilize it in my curriculum.
All concepts are clearly explained.
Easy to find what I am looking for - good examples and graphics.
Contains the hard to find info that many books gloss over
Excellent book for the self taught


I would highly recommend it for all users.

Finally a book that presents information in a way all experience levels can appreciate and beginners understand. I have been using Inventor for a while now (mostly on the job training) and I have been looking for a book that wasn't muddled down with useless information; something I could grab and quickly find a solution when I had a question...this is it.

To my surprise I came across this book written by someone whose session I attended at Autodesk University. I thought he presented the material in a way that was easily understood; even on a topic I had no experience. This is exactly how he presents the material in this book; talking to you and not at you. He doesn't assume that you have 3D modeling knowledge so the flow and amount of material presented is in a way that is easily understood. As each topic is presented, previous topics are reinforced and built on progressively. He even throws in a few comparisons to AutoCAD during the section on sketching.

For those of you who have already been using Inventor, I recommend picking this one up; for beginners I highly recommend. I have picked up a lot of nuggets of information (the shortcut guide and advanced assembly tools especially) and as an added bonus, each chapter has resources you can download from the Sybex website.

As a Certified Autodesk Instructor for over 15 years, I found this manual to be an excellent resource for an introduction to Autodesk Inventor 3D solid modeling and 2D documentation in general. As a user of Autodesk Inventor for over 10 years; I believe this publication provides very intuitive insight to the philosophy and recommended approach to modeling and drawing creation within Autodesk Inventor.

The examples used in the book use standard sample files included with Autodesk Inventor; and the Companion Website found on the back cover [...] includes accompanying tutorials which add a plethora of additional information.

I personally recommend this book to any users that desire a quick and easy introduction to basic 3D modeling and 2D drawing documentation creation utilizing Autodesk Inventor.
