Summary This text, now in its third edition, presents all common methods of computer/automated graphical construction most helpful to the engineering student, draftsperson or designer, describing, in easy-to-understand terms, a wide range of hardware platforms that will run a single set of software options from the Autodesk Corporation. Rewritten and illustrated with over 330 tables, drawings and photographs, this is a vital reference for all mechanical, electrical and electronics, manufacturing, software, civil and architectural engineers; engineering designers and drafters, and industrial illustrartors and asrtisits. A definitive text on the subject for students familiar with LISP in undergarduate courses
