Presents a comprehensive introduction to computer graphics using BASIC on the IBM PC. Provides in-depth coverage of pixel block and character graphics, video games or low-resolution graphics, the construction of data graphs, two- and three-dimensional graphics, the set-up of complex objects, hidden line and surface algorithms, and perspective and stereoscopic views. Background mathematics such as coordinate geometry and matrix manipulation are explained in detail, and program segments and extensive illustrations are provided.

This book seeks to deconstruct the process of scientific knowledge discovery and theory construction by scrutinizing the circumstances under which all scientific hypotheses are conceived. It concentrates on the interrelatedness of observation, paradox, delusion and self reference in scientific theory and method.

Delusions in Pursuit of Theory

Science's First Mistake

Following the author's successful Practical Introduction to Computer Graphics, this new comprehensive textbook of computer graphics exploits the full range of techniques and effects that recent advances in computer hardware technology now make possible. Soundly organised as a teaching text, the book is intended for undergraduate courses, and takes the reader with a limited background in computing and mathematics to a state-of-the-art level in computer graphics. FORTRAN 77 and Pascal editions of this text are also available. ' ... with the assumption that the reader has an elementary knowledge of C, and of the principles of Cartesian co-ordinate geometry, this book will make an ideal basis for a three-term undergraduate course in computer graphics.' Toby Howard, Times Higher Education Supplement.
