  • Page 57, first line of next to last paragraph: "All rotation matrices have a determinant of one and are orthogonal ," - remove the space before the ","
  • Page 102, Figure 5.4 caption says "...and on the left it is...", should be "...and on the right it is..." (Joao Matos)
  • Page 193, Section 6.7.4, third paragraph, third sentence says "extended later by with". Remove "by". (Doug Paul)

  • Page 519, caption: "the upper middle from the z-depth map" should be "the middle right from the z-depth map...". (Yu Wen Wu)
  • Page 533, 2nd paragraph, line 3 says "finite element analysis (FEM)". This should be changed to "the finite element method (FEM)". (Yu Wen Wu)
  • Page 572, Figure 12.30, change "After Andersson" to "Illustration after Andersson".
  • Page 600, Figure 13.21, change "Image from" to "Images from".
  • Page 607, 2nd paragraph after Equation 13.45, third sentence says "which is patented." Remove that part of the sentence (it is not patented any longer). (Stefan Sperlhofer)
  • Page 624, Figure 13.48. The credit "Illustration after Halstead et al. [494]." should be in parentheses and italicized.
  • Page 632, Figure 13.56, change "After Tatarchuk" to "Illustration after Tatarchuk".

  • Page 937, reference [279] Dudash, Bryan, “Animating Crowd Rendering,” in Hubert Nguyen, ed., GPU Gems 3, Addison-Wesley, pp. 39–52, 2007. Title should be should be "Animated" instead of "Animating".
  • Page 948, reference [488] Hammon, Earl, Jr., “Practical Post-Processing Depth of Field,” title should be "Process" instead of "Processing".
  • Page 959, reference 670: the "e" in "Correa" (with a hat over it) should not be italicized.
  • Page 959, reference 683, should be "Kolchin, Konstantin", not "Konstantin, Kolchin".
  • Page 961, reference 711, remove the first "Ares".

  • Page 996, reference 1323, "I3D" should change to "{\em ACM Symposium on Interactive 3D Graphics and Games (I3D 2007)}"
  • Page 1008, The index to "depth buffer" says "see buffer, Z-buffer and W-buffer", but should only say "see buffer, Z-buffer"
  • Index bug: "Ambient term", says "see lighting model" but there is no such entry. Need to add "lighting model | ambient term" The closest entry is "lighting equation" referring to page 146, but there is no occurrence of lighting equation on page 146. Needs to be fixed as well. (Christer Ericsson)
