Outdated forms, author verbose and boring - 




I am required to have this book for a business class for interior design. I have only had it for 3 weeks and I have to say it is not that good. I am sure a lot of teachers have a hard time finding an adequate book for interior design classes and am sure this is the best they could find (that's why it's getting the 3 stars.)
The chapters cover the specific lectures, questions about the lecture, diary of a novice interior designer on her 1st job where you have to help her fill out forms and a commercial example of interior design work with more forms to fill. The forms are in the book as well as on a CD that is part of the book. The CD forms are in Excel and very poorly formatted... so every time you type, you have to reformat everything. I would have expected them to be in Adobe with areas to fill in information. Also, the forms that need to be filled are redundant and it seams like you keep entering the same information over and over, just in different forms. I am surprised and embarrassed that living in the 21st century interior designers are taught to still fill paper forms, where almost all other professions have specialized computer systems where all the information would be entered (ONLY ONCE) and numerous reports could be obtained.
The lectures are very hard to read, specially is you are trying to answer the questions at the beginning of each chapter... the author is very verbose and boring. Again, I realize this is a business book but I don't necessary think it had to be boring or that expensive!
