5Great Book  Dec 19, 2000
I think 'Drawing and Designing with Confidence' is an excellent book, especially for those students who are beginning with architecture and landscape architecture, and want more help with their budding abilities. It focuses largely on technique and fundamentals, which is a good basis to quality drafting and drawing, and ultimately convincing presentations. If you are a beginning student, or a more advanced individual who wants to sharpen up on your skills, then this is the book to get.

5master graphics  Sep 30, 2001
A great book for both beginners and professionals. If you follow Mike Lin's graphic principles in this book, your drawings will improve dramatically. I took his one-day workshop and this book basically follows the workshop in written form.

5An integral part of the design library  Dec 13, 2001 By Urban Planner, ASLA
This book is a must for the design professional in the disciplines of landscape architecture, architecture, planning, interior design, and graphic design. Mike Lin is a master of graphic and design expression. The many techniques shown in this book are easy to learn and apply for those who are frustrated with their graphic and design capabilities. This book will definitely strengthen your confidence!

5drawing and designing with confidence: a step-by-step guide  Sep 15, 2005 By Lady Bug Designs "Landscape Designer"
Although I've been drawing and illustrating for a living for quite some time now, this book served to refresh my memory on things that I have forgotten and teach me some new and quick short cuts. I highly recommend this book for beginners and polished illustrators.

4Worth the money  Jul 20, 2005 By Imajica
Great book on different drawing techniques and the basics of perspective drawing as well as more advanced composition samples. The step-by-step instructions are easy to follow and create immediate results. In my opinion a good source for students to either acquire some sketching-skills or fresh up on the basics. Another great feature are the many sample-drawings of different drawing styles. The only draw-back is that the drawings are being too much reduced from their original size. But if you take the time to scan the ones you are particulary interested in and get them back to a decent size, you will get a lot out of this book.
"All in all": a valuable source in my opinion.
