Developer Bibliography

From K-3D

K-3D is not for beginning developers - the design covers a lot of advanced ground within the C++ domain in particular and object-oriented design in general. Following resources are "must haves" for anyone who wishes to use C++ at a level beyond just "C with classes".

There are additional references to learn about 3D, CGI, animations, etc.
