Title: mediocre at best
Review: I'm a pro max user and I'd have to agree with previous reviewers that this book is just plain boring and poorly organized. Then again it's not a good 'reference' either as a successful reference makes no pretenses of being boring or not because it must function as a kind of a matrix style index that describes in detail the specific functions of the program. Unfortunately such a book does not exist so I had to settle for this title that sits so awkwardly between being a tutorial and a reference. By the way, don't use this as a tutorial because it gives you examples of objects that are already constructed (on the CD) while only barely hinting at how to actually construct them. If you know that purchasing this title (I'd get it used) is merely a provisional purchase for intermediate users, then it would be worth getting to fill out your already existing prowess in the program.
