Computer Graphics and Geometric Modeling

Focusing on the evolution of graphics in education, the book examines the contrasting views on visual aids, particularly in the context of Lagrange's seminal work, Mecanique Analytique, which lacked any diagrams. It explores how the perception of graphics has shifted dramatically, especially with the advent of computer graphics, which have become integral to illustrating concepts across various fields. The text highlights the growth and maturity of computer graphics as a discipline, emphasizing its widespread use and significance in modern education and communication.
