Hello, i am pretty new to maya as well. Going through maya Fundamentals ATM. Its a very good book. From what i have seen all of the tutorials here are great. I especially like the hand tutorial. All of them are well presented though.

I've done most of the tutorials at www.learning-maya.com (http://www.learning-maya.com) they are pretty helpful.

If I were you, I'd go through the book you have, Inside Maya 5.
