Professional Review:
Ching's classic book on communicating ideas in architectural design clearly and effectively has been updated and expanded to include a complete guide to drawing equipment and materials, discussions on arrangingarchitectural presentations, and instructions and explanations on how to freehand sketch, shade, and use texture. The new larger format is easier to handle and store on a bookshelf. 1,000 line drawings.

   Summary: Great tool for life time
Encountered this book 25 years ago when I was in architectural school, it remains as one of the most used reference in our company library. Don't miss it, especially for beginning students.

   Summary: not for beginners
I am just starting out in this field and have no background in drawing or drafting. This book is too technical and does not use an easy step by step approach that would be helpful for beginners like me. This is the book we are using in my first Interior Design graphics class, and I don't think it is appropriate for beginners.

   Summary: How to convey your message
This is a must for anyone studying Architecture or any one trying to express in an architectural form. Ching goes through everything, thoroughly enough where you can figure the rest of the stuff that's not covered on your own. He changes your thought process to show you how to think about it, not just how to do it.

   Summary: Ching's Architectural Graphics
This book is a great reference for architecture students and architects. It shows in great detail drawing types and explains the uses for each of the types. It is also very helpful at the beginning with explaining the tools for drawing and their uses. I would recommend this book to anyone; it is a great tool for anyone in the field of design.
