4.0 out of 5 stars Computer Graphics & Geometric Modeling by David Salomon
This book is a valuable reference for programmers that want a good introduction to geometric modeling. The book provides enough material to allow you to write many programs dealing with the covered topics. The algorithms outlined in the book are general.

Wasting pages on areas such as why calculators compute tangents so fast has nothing to do CG. Appendices are notoriously off the main course and short. At the end, while I have no doubt about the authors knowledge, I am disappointed with the arrangement and lack of methodical presentation.
