Summary: This is a good book...........
Comment: I've read all the reviews you are reading now. After compare with other Lightwave 3D books, I bought this one, and at the same time I bought Inside Softimage. These two books are among the best book I've ever read (others are the Adobe Class in A book series)! One thing many people didn't tell you is that this book doesn't have colored pictures, which is kind hard to really see the differences of the rendered pictures. You will, however, learn a great deal of skills about lightwave 5.5. there are a lot of illustrations will help you go through each step. More than that, you will learn what Pro animators do (how to make money :) there are 2-3 typing (printing) errors of refering to the objects in the CD-ROM that came with this book. If you really want to learn lightwave, buy this book.

Summary: A Bit Frustrating
Comment: If you need/want to learn Lightwave quickly, this book may not be the best. The sections that cover planning and profesional issues are excellent. The explanations of software functions are OK, but don't expect to much detail into what each action you perform is doing. The tutorials vary in quality. The first few seem out of place. Most of them are lacking in description, and there are quite a few typographical errors and some missing files on the CD. I spend a lot of time reading manuals and doing tutorials for a number of software packages, and this book has some of the most poorly written and constructed I have ever seen. If you don't mind spending LOTS of extra time trying to work through where the authors (there are actually six of them) and editors totally screwed up, take the plunge. But I don't think this book will be worth the money unless it gets re-edited.
