Summary: Take my advice, pass this one by.
Review: I am a mechanical engineer with 4+ years experience. I have been using Pro for about 3 years. I'm trying to gain experience with FEA using Pro Mechanica so I bought this book.First I must say that this book was very hastily put together. There are countless spelling and typographical errors. There are numerous pictures of dialog boxes that don't have good descriptions of many of the item picks. The examples are very elementary and not much detail is discussed. For example most of the constraints are fixed in all directions. In my opinion, anyone can set up a problem in Pro Mechanica with all the directions fixed, apply a load and material. I expected more for this book especially given the price. I would not recommend this book unless you are a total beginner with Pro Mechanica and can find a used one for about 5 bucks.
