资源说明：This book, the third volume in the popular Game Engine Gems series, is composed of short articles that focus on a particular technique, describe a clever trick, or offer practical advice within the subject of game engine development. The 22 chapters cover four broad categories—graphics and rendering, physics, general programming, and artificial intelligence. Professional game developers, students of game development and computer science, and anyone interested in learning how the pros tackle specific problems that arise during game engine development will find useful gems in this collection.
