The problem is not the difficulty of writing an all inclusive book on the features of Carrara 5 Pro but rather the misleading promotion information on the book cover is not true.

This is a must-have resource for new and seasoned users a like! This promotional statement is UNTRUE and everyone would realize this if they read the book. The book needs to be promoted honestly and it is not. Forget about the difficulties of writting a complete Carrara 5 Pro book. This issue, once again, is the misleading promotional statement. I read this book and sent it back for a refund because it simply was not what it CLAIMED TO BE.
