About the Book

Appropriate for Introductory Drafting, Technical Drawing, and Engineering Graphics courses. This completely rewritten adaptation of Giesecke utilizes an abundance of hands-on activities and clear step-by-step descriptions to teach students freehand sketching and visualization skills for engineering graphics. New edition features completely revised material on manufacturing, student CD with animations keyed to the text, and more worksheets on sketching.
