Summary: Missing functions in CATIA
Review: Only looking at the functions of CATIA covered in this book, I see the VERY important functions missing;i.e., SURF 1, SURF 2, LIMIT 2, LAW, etc. all related to advanced surfacing and are extremely impoprtant in the use of CATIA in aerospace or automotive design. Without these functions the book will remain for beginners.

Summary: CATIA V4
Review: This book was written for CATIA V4, even though the title doesn't reference it. The CATIA Reference Guide is a companion book to this one, so it's best to buy them both. This book is very helpful and provides very good descriptions of the commands. The commands are listed in alphabetical order, so that is helpful in quickly finding the necessary command. Don't expect to be a CATIA master when you get the book. This book is extremely helpful once a basic 2D Drafting course has been taken. The price is a little steep, but if you need help, this is the book for CATIA.
