As a person that has been developing for years (more than I care to think about) I thought this would be a waste of time and started with one of Patrick's more advanced (but still basic) books. I soon realized that I was being overwhelmed by the lack of knowledge of the Unity interface and tools. This book has been great in helping me understand what and when I need to be doing something in the GUI.
