Sinopse: This book is carefully targeted toward today’s students. It is a balanced (CAD and CAM) text with up to date information on rapid prototyping, NT-based solid modeling systems and Web-related issues, all hot topics. Complicated mathematical terminology is kept to a minimum; instead, the concepts are explained in as intuitive a way as possible. Students are required to have a background only in programming, calculus, and matrix and vector algebra. The book is on the leaner side as the author feels that too many texts obscure the fundamental concepts with too many details.
