Absolutely the best source/reference book for SolidWorks 2010. Highly recommend for what one would need while using and working with SolidWorks.

The most comprehensive book on Solidworks I have seen. Essential for anyone using or contemplating using Solidworks. Great for learning your way around this solid modelling software and as a reference book once you are up and running. Don't try to live without it!

I've taken several of the SW classes, so I have plenty of reference books on how to do most things but this book gives you a wealth of details not covered in those books, it's definitely a must have, "go to", reference.

The product description states, "The only guide you need to learn the leading 3D solid modeler program, SolidWorks." Not entirely true. The bible covers a LOT of information - some important, some not so. A lot of the information - I've seen on blogs and in the SolidWorks Help / Tutorials.
He doesn't use the default interface windows (toolbar locations) - so it was confusing to me as a new user. I was comparing the book to my system. I hit a hot key by mistake which activated a selection filter, it took over 5 minutes before I realize that a filter was active and 5 minutes looking through the book to deactivate it. I gave up looking and blogged the question. The book index provided no help - filters page 1048 - featuremanger - no selection filters. This is a reference book?
Try to find information on an eDrawing using the index? There is no mention of the Universial Joint Mate or Add-ins. No examples or tutorials of the Curve feature, Equation Driven Curve, etc. - just definitions from SolidWorks. The more I look through the book, the more it does not have the items I'm looking for. THE ONLY GUIDE - NO WAY!!!

This is one of three Solidworks books which I purchased in the past two months. The book lacks a multimedia CD, doesn't provide simple step by step instructions, the actual tutorials are few and the author assumes a lot throughout the book on the software and terminology.
I couldn't open the files directly from the CD using SolidWorks. I was informed that for some of my confusion; it was due to older illustrations in the book (SolidWorks 2008, 2009 and 2010). For a newbie who is trying to following every word and step; this is confusing at times. I would not recommend this book for a new user.
