Summary: Good Book for Beginners
Comment: There aren't many Carrara books around. In fact, I know of only another book (Carrara for Dummies) by the same author. This is definite better.
What is good about this book? For a start, if you are frustrated with the manual that comes with the software, this is a good replacement. It contains more accurate information and useful, easy-to-understand instructions to follow which gets the beginner to learning in no time.
But if are not a beginner and have dabbled with the software well, then this is not for you. Many concepts are common to those in the manual just that this book illustrates the concepts better with more accurate details.
Would have given five stars if there were more goodies on the CD-ROM. This is a good Carrara total beginner's book... can really learn from this book !!

Summary: A truly great reference
Comment: As someone that has been playing with Bryce for a year and wanted to venture into the new world of creating 3D objects, I bought a copy of Carrara. Unlike Bryce, you have to actually create the objects in a scene. When I tried to do this, I promptly got LOST. The Carrara manual was no help as it was incomplete and assumed that I already knew how to make 3D objects. This being all I can say is thank you Mr. Sahlin. You have written a book that assumes nothing. This book took Carrara from being a very costly program that took up space on my hard drive to something that is a joy for me to use. Every step in the book is laid out in a manner that is easy to understand and simple to do. If anyone asks, if you have Carrara this is the book for you.

Summary: Worthless
Comment: OK, I should have read the fine print. Nevertheless, I expect cross-platform books for cross-platform software. This book ignores the Mac entirely. I can figure out the Mac commands; that's rarely a problem. But CD won't play on a Mac either, so I have no access to the files I need to follow the procedures explained in the book. What a waste of money!
