Bridges are the keys to communication and transport. But though functional; they also have an aesthetic and environmental value.Graceful and spectacular; they evoke a wide range of emotions. Yet few have visitor centres and the publicrsquo;s obvious questionsmdash;such as how they were built; what a particular part does; why they dont fall downmdash;are not often answered in simple terms.In this book; Trevor Yorke uses diagrams; drawings and photographs to explain the basic principals of their construction and style. It divides into five sectionsmdash;the first is a general background; then it discusses the arched bridges; then come other; later forms of bridge; fourthly viaducts and aqueducts; finally a quck reference guide with a list of bridges to visit.The book will certainly expand your knowledge of bridges and hopefully leave you with a greater appreciation of them.

Fantastic of the totally clueless and above :)By EmeraldWiseI had absolutely no idea how to use any part of ZBrush when I purchased the programndash;and its a bewildering interface when youve never used it before. After following the steps in this book I am now independently managing the program with increasing confidence. I guess that says it all. Getting Started in ZBrush was definitely worth the purchase price for me.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. If youve got the time...By Deane T. SmithGood set-up for one project. Z-Brush is one of the hardest programs to learn. This book does a pretty good job of walking you through it.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
