Title: Simple, Articulate, Clear, and Thourough
Review: CG and 3D artists who have have had some experience with 3d modelling will fare the best with this title, however, the accompanying CD narrated by Lammers is visually helpful for the beginner, as well. Simple tutorials and practical methods will get you using Maya in about two weeks. The learning curve for Maya is well above the average 3D program, but with persistence this book allows the reader to interpret the daunting user-interface for Maya. Aptly named, "Fundamentals" this book is also an excellent reference for moderate users who are not using all of the available tools in Maya. I will look forward to another installment by Lammers and Gooding that tackles more advanced tutotials and methods.
