The book is very well written and has helped me tremendously. It came to me new so there wasn't actually anything wrong with it. I received it promptly without hesitation.

This book was lacking in many ways. Construction Drawings and Details for Interiors: Basic Skills by Rosemary Kilmer was a much better book on space planning and graphics for much less than this book.

I needed this book for required reading for my graduate studies. It is very basic beginner space planning ideas. The layout and explanations are easy and helpful. I already had a grasp on everything this book covers, but it's a good one to keep on the bookshelf for reference.

The book is a very good reference to the importance of the space planning process with thoughtful exercises incorporated. It is best as a text book vs. trying to read and understand it on your own.
You must understand that it's not a code book, so some of the dimensions, etc. should be verified based on your own location.
