      Completely updated to include the most recent developments in the field, the third edition like the two previous editions, emphasizes clarity and thoroughness in the mathematical development of its subjects. It is written in a style that is free of jargon of special applications, while integrating the three important functions of geometric modeling: to represent elementary forms (curves, surfaces, and solids), to shape and assemble these into complex forms, and to determine geometric properties and relationships. With hundreds of illustrations, this unique book appeals to the reader's visual and intuitive skills in a way that makes it easier to understand its more abstract concepts. Upper-division and graduate students, teachers, and professionals studying, teaching or practicing geometric modeling, 3D modeling, computational geometry, computer graphics applications, animation, CAD/CAM, and related subjects will find this to be a very valuable reference. It describes and compares all the important mathematical methods for modeling curves, surfaces, and solids.It prepares the reader for more advanced topics, such as 3D modeling, CAD/CAM, animation, and scientific visualization; and incorporates references throughout the text to direct the reader to more specialized treatments of the subjects. It is carefully designed illustrations and exercises support each mathematical concept presented; and offers hundreds of exercises to test the readers comprehension.

      Michael E. Mortenson does independent research and writes on topics in geometric and 3D modeling. He is a former research scientist with a major aerospace corporation, and the author of several successful textbooks, including Geometric Modeling, Third Edition, Mathematics for Computer Graphics Applications, 2e, Geometric Transformations for 3D Modeling, 2e, and 3D Modeling, Animation, and Rendering: An Illustrated Lexicon. These works have garnered over 2400 citations. He is a graduate of the UCLA School of Engineering.
