Digital technology is causing change in the architecture, engineering, and landscape architecture and planning professions of a type and scale that these disciplines have not seen in modern history. The change from manual to digital methods of content creation has not only changed how such students learn their craft, but also created an entire generation of working professionals who face the threat of obsolescence. For both newcomers to the field and for the professionals who predate the digital revolution, help has now arrived. Computer Graphics for Architects, Engineers, and Environmental Designers by D. Dayton Reuter provides readers with the tools needed to work with today's entire range of electronic graphic techniques and computer-aided visualization.
"This great change is about methodology of practice, not about mastery of subjects or the philosophy of design," Reuter observes. "It is conceptually simple—the replacement of the old tools of our craft with the new tools."
