An introduction for novices-a refresher for professionals. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. *Reader Reviews* This review is from: Fundamentals of Computer Graphics (Hardcover) I use this book as a textbook for 3D Computer Graphics course. Before using this book, I've used Donald Hearns' and Jim Foley's. Compare to those two, I think this book cover the basic material without even touching API. This is what I like about this book. On every chapter, there is an FAQ about materials covered. It also has an exercises for us to do, unfortunately no answers. It could also be very helpful, if there are Internet links on each chapter for us to ponder or if we would want to go detail into each chapter. Sadly, this book doen't cover much about animation, which is one of the topic I'm focusing on. It also contains many errors, both in the formula and in the text. Back To Top
