3.0 out of 5 stars Good book for introduction, but too expensive, January 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Computer Graphics and Geometric Modeling for Engineers (Hardcover)

This is a nice book for basics. I borrowed it from my friend and am reading it as a supplement to an advance level NURBS course that I am currently enrolled in an University. This book is easy to read and understand. But the price is exhorbitant. There are other popular advanced level Computer Graphics books available for almost half this price. I would give 4 star rating had not the price been too high. Recommended for all interested in Computer Graphics and Geometric modeling basics, If you can afford it.
