List of Recommended Books
Fractals Everywhere (2nd ed) by Michael Barnsley [Recommended]
Paul Field writes:
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to use fractals seriously and has the relevant mathematical background.
Graphics Gems II by James Arvo [Recommended]
Francis Glassborow writes:
If you are serious about graphical program techniques then these books should certainly be part of your reference library.
Graphics Gems III by David Kirk [Recommended]
Francis Glassborow writes:
This series of books should be part of the tools of your trade.
Graphics Gems IV by Paul S Heckbert [Highly Recommended]
Francis Glassborow writes:
If you have any serious work to do with graphics (not just pretty pictures scanned in - but real programming) this series should be on your reference shelf.
Graphics Gems by Andrew S Glassner [Recommended]
Francis Glassborow writes:
If you are serious about graphical program techniques then these books should certainly be part of your reference library.
Numerical Computation Using C by Robert Glassey [Recommended]
Anthony McClelland writes:
Overall though, this is a stimulating approach to problem solving using C, and one I can recommend to anyone interested in this particular area.
Practical Neural Network Recipes in C++ by T Masters [Recommended]
Gary Thompson writes:
Overall I give the book an ambivalent thumbs up.
Secrets of the C++ Masters by Jeff Alger [Recommended]
Francis Glassborow writes:
There are many more specialist topics on the use of C++ but this book is an excellent starting point for those who have ambitions to becoming master technicians with C++.
Software Development with C++ (Maximising Reuse With Object Technology) by Kjell Nielsen [Recommended]
Selvyn Wright writes:
To summarise, this is a book which should be on the bookshelf of any one who is serious about software development.
Software Solutions in C by Dale Schumacher [Highly Recommended]
Ian Cargill writes:
While there is a surfeit of C books for beginners, there are all too few books which show the intermediate programmer how to use C to solve practical problems. Software Solutions in C is an excellent book which does just that.
Virtual Reality Excursions with Programs in C by Watkins & Marenka [Recommended]
David M Holmes writes:
Anyone wanting to learn all about virtual reality and how to program virtual worlds, or just 3D graphics programming in general would find this a very helpful and interesting book.
