Master the ins and outs of building curved surfaces and organic
shapes while sharpening your knowledge of the mathematics used in
contemporary computer-aided engineering applications. Inside Rhinoceros
provides readers with an all-inclusive introduction to 3D computer
modeling using the newest release of Rhinoceros û RhinoÖ,
Release 2 û with special emphasis on understanding NURBS surfaces
and boundary-representation methods. Real-world projects and step-by-step
Rhino tutorials acquaint novices with key features and functions
of the software, which is rapidly gaining acceptance in the corporate
market as well as in the classroom. These hands-on exercises provide
a direct path to learning how to generate free-form NURBS curves
for creating surfaces and solids, construct polygon meshes for coping
with other applications, and outputting photo-realistic images and
2D production engineering drawings from 3D objects.

Rhino NURBS 3D Modeling is an excellent book not only on building
models with this popular modeling tool but on computer modeling
in general. Many of the techniques described here, such as Boolean
operations and trimming surfaces, can be applied to building models
in other programs.
