The Schemers Guide to Solid Modeling

This book explores the exciting world of 3D computer graphics and solid modeling. Using the interpreted programming language Scheme, it describes modeling concepts and techniques such as solid modeling, transformations, color and lighting, and rendering. As each concept or technique is introduced, readers are encouraged to produce stunning 3D renderings of solids using 3DScheme, a powerful Scheme-based software package by Schemers Inc. that incorporates the state-of-the-art, industry-standard ACIS solid modeling engine. This book is highly recommended for undergraduate and advanced high-school students of computer science with an interest in solid modeling.
