Title: I may as well have gotten mugged by Alban himself...
Review: The only reason I gave this book one star is because I couldn't give it less. The book is touted as a entry-level and intermediate manual, but right away it starts off in one of the more advanced aspects of the program (morph gizmo). If I had not been well-versed in 3D Studio Max & had previous 3d experiance, I would have been completly lost. The tutorials are fractured, B&W images in the book are misplaced, and phantom scenes the book refers to on the CD don't exist. I ended up frustrated, angry and uneccesarily $47 poorer. One should check NewTek's site to see what 3rd party instruction they recommend if they want to learn LW. However, if you DON'T want to learn Lightwave you should buy Alban's book.
