This review is from: Procedural Elements of Computer Graphics (Hardcover)

This book is for the serious graphics programmer who wants to learn the techniques and how to apply them. I don't promise "easy": I do say necessary! With block diagrams for algorithms you can make code in any language from the discussion in this book!
