A shortcut to success!

It is my long time desire to find a better graphics software to visualize my research project. However, because of overstuffed schedule of daily life, I have to keep using the tool I have been using to meet the deadline. In this holiday season, I picked this book and I think I found a shortcut to the place where I can get an up-to-date overview for the numerous graphics tools. This book provides a concise description to computer graphics principles, which help readers to better understand the graphics tool. More valuable to me, this book summarizes 266 graphics software tools by application category. Now I am sure I got a better view for the graphics tools in the current world and I know where I can find them. This book will be an excellent reference book on my desk.
