This is the "BEST" Revit book reference for serious or advanced users.
Plenty of "real world" examples and helpful tips from seasoned architects.
Note:
If you are a beginner with Revit, try with another "step by step tutorial style" book.

I have all of the books, being self-taught up until recently. But this one is by a far, far distance better than any others. Every time I pick it up (and I actually enjoy reading it) I get something significant from it. Autodesk basically has a scam to get you to pay almost two hundred an hour to their dealers for training because they give you squat for support, and no old-fashioned manual.
Before I bought this I had hit a wall, paid for about a thousand bucks worth of training with a more reasonable dealer out-of-state, got alot out of it, then this book came along. I would advise both the book and the training, as an advanced user. The key is that the dealers are hungry. The small ones will negotiate. You should be paying less. Try Caddcenters of FL over the net. Really good. BTW I get nothing out of saying that. Period. Just want to save you time.
But buy the book first!
Also, if you are using Autocad anymore, you are wasting your time. Or keep doing it, as Revit passes you by at a hundred miles an hour. Just trying to help. |

I was very impressed with the book, I've bought others over the years (never by these authors) and this is by far the best. The setup is great, enough information to get your mind going, and not too detailed to make it boring. The explanations provide understanding of the tools but also get you thinking of what more to do with it. There is so much information packed into it, it isn't just about Revit tools, but about a whole project put together. Plus, you get extras that were unexpected; Revit for fabrication, and film and other great topics, that is a great read, also gets you thinking of many ways to use the program.
I have to say I am very happy with this book, it shows there was a lot of work put into it, it is very much appreciated. Thank you for putting this book out. |
