Book Description

Release Date: Jun 21 2002 | Series: Wordware Game Math Library
3D Math Primer for Graphics and Game Development covers fundamental 3D math concepts that are especially useful for computer game developers and programmers. The authors discuss the mathematical theory in detail and then provide the geometric interpretation necessary to make 3D math intuitive. Working C++ classes illustrate how to put the techniques into practice, and exercises at the end of each chapter help reinforce the concepts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely wonderful book for beginners Mar 28 2005
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This was an absolutely wonderful book for learning the maths. I've read a dozen other books on the subject which assume some understanding of the math, which makes trying to teach to this crowd quite redundant. Paired up with Physics for Game Developers by Bourg, this is a slick combination for anyone without some whack degree in mathematics.

The authors state early on that this book is intended as the first book an aspiring game programmer should read, and I would agree that for the most part it lives up to that goal. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW
I bought this book with 'NO' experience in game programming or 3d math. I guess you could have called me a 'pre-beginner' if that says anything. Read more
