Old school tips for all users! [Posted on 2007-12-04]
I've been a user of AutoCAD since release 10 (1991), at one time I used to purchase 2 to 4 reference books per AutoCAD release. I have not purchased a book on AutoCAD since AutoCAD 2000. Until now. Mr. Abbott's book is by far the best AutoCAD Productivity book on the market! If you have had formal or informal training for AutoCAD, or are a seasoned user of AutoCAD, get this book! Although Mr. Abbott packs this book full of real-world tips and tricks and enough examples to give one a good jump-start with customizing AutoCAD, my enthusiasm for this book is based on the fact that Mr. Abbott explains how and why AutoCAD works without being geeky. "AutoCAD: Secrets Every User Should Know", is a well written reference and tutorial book which will not become obsolete with the next release of AutoCAD.

Best Productivity Book in years [Posted on 2007-12-09]
This is the first CAD book that I have bought in years (using AutoCAD since release 2.5), this book is a must have for anyone using AutoCAD. This is not a command reference guide, it truly shows you how to use the software through best practices, customization, automation and programming. It is a comprehensive book filled with tips, tricks, pitfalls, and examples. Mr. Abbott has brought together enough productivity tips for the user that the book will pay for itself through increased productivity.

Great Stuff!! [Posted on 2007-12-12]
I've been using AutoCAD for many years and have seen many books rehash the same old stuff.
This book addresses Autocad from a user standpoint, written by someone who not only completely understands AutoCAD but also knows how it's used in the real world.
A "must-have" for all AutoCAD users.

The Best AutoCAD Book ever written!!!!!!!!!!!! [Posted on 2008-06-20]
This book is by far the best AutoCAD book ever written. It is full of practical everyday shortcuts and general information that the average everyday user needs to know. Your productivity will increase by just reading the first chapter. This book is written is plain easy to understand english. A very easy read!!!! I loved it.

You need this book! [Posted on 2008-08-23]
If you are at a point with Autocad where you know the keyboard commands and short-cuts and the new hurdles to tackle with improving your autocad skills ARE work-flow and efficiency. . . THIS BOOK IS A MUST FOR YOU! I try to make sure a learn a few new tricks from this book every week and it has already improved my skills. The last 1/3 of the book is LISP stuff and while I am not at that point yet, it looks extensive and concise at a skimming. If you are comfortable with editing your cui file and understand the difference between color and style dependent plotting this book is right up your alley.
