The user interface of Blender is different, but very efficient. If you never worked with Blender before please read at first a general introduction to blenders user interface.   http://www.blender.org/education-help/tutorials/tutorial-folder/blender-user-interface-tutorial/

To use Blender efficiently its best having one hand at the keyboard and the other hand at your three button mouse. A lot of actions can be executed by combinations of keyboard and mouse. May be this sounds strange to you. A steep learning curve before you, but it is worth the effort. Blender documentation and tutorials have its own notation for this keyboards and mouse events.

•  XKEY press letter X on the keyboard.
•  ALT-P press the Alt key simultaneously the letter P on the keyboard
•  LMB left mouse button
•  RBM right mouse button
