Vector Game Math Processors (Wordware Game Math Library)

Summary: Great Book
Review: This book is for professionals and intermediate programmers interested in optimizing 3D vector calculations of their code. So this book gives you a clue what and how to do. I think a really professional book from a professional. It gives you a nice start to build fast code for vector and matrix calculations.
Maybe faster then the DirectX implementations. ;-)

Some important notes about the book:

1. nice explanations and figures
2. no nonsense code or listnings
3. all working code and compiled binaries
4. 4 platforms supported - so if you are coding a proggy in OpenGl for Mac and Windows. It will compile with a appropriate compiler.
5. no stupid or extrordinary woodoo assembler code - understandable code!
6. many instruction sets are explained and implemented like MMX, 3DNow, SSE and so on

A great buy. Satisfaction is guaranteed.
