Summary: What A Waste!
Review: This Book has not a good graphic or photo (only wireframe). You must run Ideas Help software with this book. After do by step on this book, I can use Ideas in 2 hours without any experience before. I think the price should be lower than setup price 20%. By the way you can read all informations from Ideas Help software and learn step by step from them without this book. yes , you can save your money more.

Summary: Useful Workbook/Tutorial
Review: We used this book as a tutorial for my graduate FEA class. It worked well as a tutorial describing the basic functions of Ideas (6.0 is what my version was) and how to construct models, deal with parts, and construct results. That is all it is, however, and it is not a reference book. As a guide, its very good at getting you started, but after that, you will need to go somewhere else for information.
