Salient Features

the Eleventh Edition elaborates on integration of computer graphics through six additional chapters of basic fundamentals; provides two sets of problems to test and reinforce readers' understanding of material; stresses the ability to manipulate three-dimensional geometry-- whether on the surface of a drawing or as a solid computer model; and highlights popular CADD products and integrates CADD into each chapter as it naturally occurs.
the authors cover all topics basic to the preparation of working drawings for both products and systems--e.g., multiview drawing and freehand sketching, spatial geometry, and design and dimensioning practices; and make extensive use of step-by-step illustrations.
