Look inside, or order it from Amazon. Information about the book's contents can be found here.

Other pages and resources hosted here:

• A blog (and its About page) containing new information we think is worthwhile.
• A Portal Page for the best real-time web resources.
• The book corrections area (for all editions).
• Our book recommendation list for real-time computer graphics; we would appreciate your comments.
• The Object/Object Intersection page for information on 3D object intersections.
• Tomas' Powerpoint Slides for a semester's course derived from the book. A little dated, but a good starting basis.
• The Bibliography of the book, with hyperlinked resources (the First Edition and Second Edition bibliographies are also available).
• Older resources: A Google map of the top 20 game publishers of 2006 (really, gamedevmap is more useful now), and the Fantasy Graphics League results.
• The 2nd Edition resources page has been kept around just in case. This page is no longer maintained, so expect dead links and stale information. That said, there are some articles linked that we no longer link to here, since we have added the material to our book.

The rest of this page is dedicated to providing information related to the book's contents: new techniques, worthwhile websites, etc. After coverage of books and graphics APIs, the page is organized into categories based on the book. We also have a portal page that is an extremely condensed set of some of the best links available; we won't repeat these here (much). We have also trimmed out many links from this page; see the old Second Edition page if you want to look through older, possibly dead links.
