Silvere,
I like this book for those sorts of problems:
http://cs.smith.edu/~orourke/books/compgeom.html
It's mathematical but very thorough.
Sincerely,
Daniel Selman

Subject: extending bounds class (updated)
Hi,
No reply on my last e-mail on this topic. Sort of weird since I
believe this kind of extension might be interesting many people. Are
all mathematicians on vacation ?
To sun engineers : could this be added to the 1.3 spec ?
I've written a simple sub class for bounding sphere, bounding box and
bounding polytope to provide union, subtraction and volume features.
I don't know however enough maths to compute the volume and
subtraction for polytope (that is using 6 clipping planes).
Can anybody provide me the equations ? Or a pointer to the place I
can find these ?
I'll do the coding and as a reward provide the code.
Thanks.
