Product Description:
Based on the latest version of the software, Autodesk Inventor from the Top uses realistic examples, exercises, tutorials, plus more than 500 screen captures to guide readers, step-by-step, through basic sketching and solid modeling to the application of more advanced modeling techniques. Ideal for mechanical engineering professionals and students, this how-to and reference manual begins with an overview of part creation. Subsequent chapters, each building on information presented previously, lead readers through the process of using mission-critical Autodesk Inventor features and functions. Users learn to sketch, constrain and dimension 3D drawings, create and edit drawing views, and create assemblies and sub-assemblies. A variety of time saving and productivity enhancing advanced solid modeling techniques - such as derived parts and assemblies plus mass property information for active and multiple parts - are also explored in detail. Comprehensive in scope, the final chapter provides opportunities to gain valuable hands-on experience with additional Autodesk Inventor functionality, including: transcripting, migrating, importing other 3D file types, using the Design Assistant and Engineer's Notebook, and more!

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Autodesk Inventor from the Top
I have worked my way through about 75 percent of this book. I find it to be very helpful for learning to use Inventor from scratch. I was having no luck at all with the tutorial that came on the software CD. This book has taken me to the intermediate level.

I wish there were fewer typos. I wish there were fewer instances of pick sequences being out of order, (work plane referenced to a surface and an axis). I wish the index did not expect the reader to know the Autodesk vernacular. ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Bad Title - Good Book- Title should be From the Beginning
I have completed beginning and advanced Inventor classes using this book. I have held an A average with very little confusion of how to use the knowledge from this book. It covers all the most necessary topics, detailed enough for me and all of my classmates to master.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not just disappointing, but totally disappointing
I regret wasting money on this book. It is even worst than the online help menu



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Disappointing
The title of the book is misleading and the book is disappointing. It it the other way round. If you want to find out the tricks of using Inventor or to discover the "tops" of Inventor, don't buy this book. It is simply of replica of the help menu found from the application



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Autodesk Inventor From The Top
In my 10+ years as a Certified Autodesk Instructor, I have found that there are two approaches to writing a tutorial manual. First, there's the "just shut up and do it" approach, where you follow instructions, but a lack of reference information to explain what you just did causes you to wonder "O.K., I did it, but what did I do?". Then there's the "Russian novel" approach, where the theory is that if you read a three inch thick book about how to play a Mozart piano concerto, that you will be able to ... Read More
