Reviews
Visualization has long needed a solid, standard and detailed text on the algorithmic aspects of isosurface construction and use. This text will become the standard entry point into this vast literature for at least the next decade, even for researchers already accustomed to working with isosurfaces. It belongs on every professional's shelf. -Hamish Carr, University of Leeds Isosurfaces are one of the most prevalent ways to visualize three-dimensional data. This wonderful book is the first that nicely summarizes the foundations as well as the state of the art on isosurfaces. Everyone, from the novice to the expert, will find something new and interesting in this book. This book's treatment of isosurfaces goes way beyond the surface, deep into the heart and soul of this rich topic situated in between the fields of graphics, visualization, and computational geometry. -Torsten Moller, University of Vienna (Universitat Wien)
