Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Focusing on geometric intuition, this book gives the necessary information for understanding how images get onto the screen by using the complementary approaches of ray tracing and rasterization. It covers topics common to an introductory course, such as sampling theory, texture mapping, spatial data structure, and splines. It also includes a number of contributed chapters from authors known for their expertise and clear way of explaining concepts.
HIGHLIGHTS
- Major updates and improvements to numerous chapters, including shading, ray tracing, physics-based rendering, math, and sampling
- Updated coverage of existing topics
- The absorption and reworking of several chapters to create a more natural flow to the book
The fifth edition of Fundamentals of Computer Graphics continues to provide an outstanding and comprehensive introduction to basic computer graphic technology and theory. It retains an informal and intuitive style while improving precision, consistency, and completeness of material, allowing aspiring and experienced graphics programmers to better understand and apply foundational principles to the development of efficient code in creating film, game, or web designs.
"Packs in discussions of the basics of computer graphics for college-level students and programmers. New chapters have been added along with extensive revisions and updated new material, making this a 'must' for any college-level computer graphics library."
--The Midwest Book Review
"A nice, general introduction to the most important computer graphics topics. They don't just provide a good overview of their field; they also provide many chapters on related material, making their textbook unusually self-contained. Additional chapters are written by an outstanding roster of contributors, an uncommon feature in standard textbooks."
--Fernando Berzal, Associate Professor of Computer Science and A.I., University of Granada
