In my first book on geometric algebra in 2007 the preface described how I had been completely surprised by the existence of geometric algebra, especially after having recently completed a book on vector analysis where it was not even mentioned! So why am I writing a second book on the same subject?Well it’s not because I have...

Capturing a wealth of experience about the design of object-oriented software, four top-notch designers present a catalog of simple and succinct solutions to commonly occurring design problems. Previously undocumented, these 23 patterns allow designers to create more flexible, elegant, and ultimately reusable designs without having to...

Few people ever read a preface, and those who do often just glance at the first few lines. So we begin by answering the question most frequently asked by the readers of our manuscript: "What does [BB] mean?" Like most undergraduate texts in mathematics these days, answers to some of our exercises appear at the back of the book....

The second, revised edition of this book covers all aspects of non-uniform rational B-splines necessary to design geometry in a computer-aided environment. Basic B-spline features, curve and surface algorithms, and state-of-the-art geometry tools are all discussed. Detailed code for design algorithms and computational tricks are covered, too,...

By computerized tomography (CT) we mean the reconstruction of a function from its line or plane integrals, irrespective of the field where this technique is applied. In the early 1970s CT was introduced in diagnostic radiology and since then, many other applications of CT have become known, some of them preceding the application in radiology...

Discussed is the electromagnetic field theory...
