      I spoke with Aidan; this is the Education version of the Dummies book. So the layout is different, but it's essential the same information, just designed for the classroom instead of the coffee table/desk (wherever you do you computer learning).

      Either way, both books are very good! (...however don't expect different information, just different formating)

      Cheers,

        You're welcome! I guess (understandably) that schools don't like starting by calling their students "Dummies".

        I recommend the books highly. I've learned things just by randomly opening and reading. Aidan used the vast resources of the entire SketchUp team to put together the information, so there are some very good nuggets in there.

        Cheers,

              The insite builders' books are pretty neat. very informative as well. I love Bonnie's books as well, but sometimes it's like reading stereo instructions πŸ˜„. Dang engineers... πŸ˜†
