Nice content, unacceptable print condition !!!
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2019
I have received the book last week and the condition that I've received it in led me to writing my first book review on amazon. I've order the book on Feb 5th, 2019 and received it on Feb 11th, 2019. The review is for "3D Math Primer for Graphics and Game Development, 2nd Edition" by Fletcher Dunn, Ian Parberry published by CRC Press (November 2, 2011). Note that my rating of 1-star is only for the print condition of the book not the contents. The book was advertised as hardcover and the condition does not resemble any professional hardcover book I've ever owned. At almost $70 price tag you expect nothing but quality that would reflect the content inside. Sadly this is not the case here. The print quality is low, text is readable but seems to be in some sort of gray shading rather than crisp black letters. Binding is a joke. I would expect a hardcover book to have a cloth spine binding that would hold the pages for many years to come. The books seems like a cheap paperback edition glued in a hardcover casing. When turning the pages you literally just wait for one of them to come off. It is impossible to have to book lay flat on the table which is what a decent hardcover edition should be able to do. I've also attached some pictures of "Game Engine Architecture, 3rd Edition" by Jason Gregory for comparison. Both are done by CRC Press, however only "Game Engine Architecture" gets a decent hardcover treatment. Notice the cloth spine binding in "Game Engine Architecture", which is I've come to expect from any book that titles itself as a hardcover edition. Seems like "3d Math Primer for Graphics and Game Development" is just another example of the print quality the professional field of computer graphics is getting nowadays (see the reviews on print quality of "Real-Time Rendering, Fourth Edition 4th Edition" , which btw is also published by CRC Press, or "Physically Based Rendering: From Theory to Implementation, 3rd Edition" published by Morgan Kaufmann). Also it's just sad to see how the authors get rewarded for their hard work only to see their work get published in such way. Well it's the 21st century way I guess where quality and customer satisfaction is the thing of the ancient past remembered only by the last few. Obviously my book is going back to amazon, I would like to order another copy but given the print quality provided by CRC Press I would rather not. Shame, because I really did want to have this book on my bookshelf, but having it in this condition would not make any joy to look at or read.

I’m a bit of a mathematical dunce, but so far I can mostly follow along. I may need to re-read a few times and supplement with other sources from time to time, but I’m feeling smarter already.
The physical product on the other hand... What’s with the print layout? The inner page gutter is practically non-existent, the words of every page get lost in the crevasse where the pages meet the binding!! (I believe it’s called the valley or gutter)..
And yet, there is a good two inches of white space on the outer edge of the page that could have been used more effectively.
I had planned to return this, but it seems all current prints of this book are equally affected.
I can purchase the book as “print on demand” from the UK supplier, but it’s a good £40 more expensive to do so.
My options are...
A) return it and pay well over the odds for a copy that isn’t defective...
B) return it and buy a digital copy (that’s a whole other story)
C) keep it, and live with it.
CRC Press have really dropped the ball on a number of publications lately, I dislike the idea of rewarding them for a poor quality reproduction .. but I guess that’s where we are.
Super kudos to the authors though - a fantastic work, and super friendly at that.
