About this title

Review

I've bought today your ebook 'Practical WPF Graphics Programming' and I would like to make you compliments for your great works!! It's really what I need for our project and it's written in a perfect way. -- Daniele Picciaia

This is the best book on WPF graphics programming. I find that the example code included in the book is really useful in my WPF projects. -- Jane Lee

This book introduces the subject of WPF graphics better than any of the other books that I have read. It's introduction to the design of 3D graphics shapes and their projection onto a 2D plane is comprehensive and very clear. Even after reading the previously published books on this subject, I was delightfully surprised to discover that this book gave me a better understanding of XAML, shape transforms, animation, and placement of 2D objects on 3D surfaces than I thought possible. If you want to thoroughly master graphics programming, this is the book for you. Dr. Xu's book has exceeded all my expectations and I'm giving it a five star rating. -- Robin T. Wernick
