Swift 3D comes with a really nice manual. Its in a PDF somewhere in the programs file.

If you bought the boxed version, there should be a printed manual, too. It’s pretty lengthy and is fairly useful, too. (It is probably the same as the PDF, but I have only read the paper version, so I can’t be certain)
