An excellent book on 3D on the Mac. Written in a very systematic and clear order, taking you from an overview into deep water. I'll recommend the book to any Mac user who aspires to became a 3D artist. The book is suitable for the absolute beginner as well as for the advanced amateur.

A general overview of neat 3D tricks that could be tackled on any computer, not just Mac, provided that it isn't a dinosaur.My only problem is that I wish the tutorials would be more specific about which applications they could be handled on, as provided on the accompanied CD.With that I'd like to say that I wish these CD accompanied books could sell alternative, lesser priced, non-CD versions for people who already own the 3D software or are willing to take the time to download the demos from individual software company sites. $50 is a bit pricey!!!
Fantastic!

This book covers so much general 3D information that it is a must-have even for people not using the Macintosh platform, assuming Mr. Lyn doesn't come out with others geared towards other platforms. This book is chock full of information, ranging from the beginning level to the advanced level. I have been involved with 3D for several years, and each time I read this book, I learn something new and valuable. The only area I can think of that is weak is the section on blobbies, possibly because there aren't many Mac programs support them yet.
