New Book Gives Programmers the Tools to Make Their Applications Come Alive
with Graphics

An introduction to graphical application design for Windows and SVGA/VGA
graphics using Visual Basic 3.0

BLUE RIDGE SUMMIT, PA--Many Windows programmers prefer Visual Basic to C++
because it's less expensive, easier to learn, and based on the world's
most widely used programming language. It's to that emerging market of
Visual Basic developers that author Lee Adams directs this guide to
visualization graphics programming for Windows.

Visualization and Virtual Reality: 3D Programming with Visual Basic for
Windows opens the door to cuffing-edge object- and image-based
visualization technology. In addition to easy-to-follow tutorials for six
ready-to-build sample applications, Adams presents a handy set of toolkit
modules programmers can paste into their own applications. Coverage
includes:

* A 3D toolkit that can be used to create boxes, spheres,
  cylinders, cones, wedges, and curved surfaces
* An animation toolkit including a fully-interactive playback
  engine with forward, reverse, freezeframe, and singlestep
  capabilities
* A kinematics simulation toolkit with script-driven 
  animation-building and playback capabilities
* A virtual reality toolkit that gives programmers the ability 
  to manage an exploration-based VR session on a PC
