Great graphics book for Pascal

I don't often review books, but this sleeper needs a good review.Most of the books on graphics for "Pascal" feature a particularimplementation of Pascal. This is a book that features non-implementation specific examples. Starting with a simple getand set pixel routines, the author explains how all the higherlevel functions are performed, with real code examples. He thengives several chapters of real world systems that these principles can be used on.Formerly I have been using C graphics books and translating thecode to Pascal for use. Other Pascal graphics books are simplycookbooks for a particular implementation.
