From the Back Cover

AutoCAD release 13 is an entirely new draughting package from AutoDESK. It is not an upgrade of previous releases and utilises Microsoft Windows for the user interface.

No previous experience of CAD is required and only a very basic understanding of the windows environment is needed.
