Stock no. 2119117
Published by W.H. Freeman and Company.
1st
1979.
Slightly better than very good condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper.
Written for the layman. It unfolds a tale which starts with the deceptively simple days of the early 1930s, through the tide of discovery which flowed from the giant machines constructed for accelerating particles, to the present concern with the quark structure of matter and the unification of fundamental interactions. Blue cloth boards, gilt title to spine. 138 pages including index. ISBN: 071671177X. A very nice copy with dustwrapper.

THEORY OF RECONSTRUCTION FROM IMAGE MOTION
Written by Stephen Maybank.
Stock no. 2118967
Published by Springer-Verlag.
1993.
Slightly better than very good condition.
Springer Series in Information Sciences. This book presents the mathematics underlying the reconstruction of camera motion from the movements of points in the camera image. It describes recent work employing mathematical methods drawn from linear algebra, projective geometry, algebraic geometry, the theory of transversality and the theory of least-squares approximation. This book is a good starting point for anyone interested in the application of different mathematical techniques to the rapidly expanding field of computer vision, especially in the areas of vehicle guidance, robotics and remote sensing. ISBN: 0387555374. Light wear to corners. Foxing to outer page edges.

Stock no. 2118857
Published by Academic Press.
Circa
1966.
Slightly better than very good condition in a very good dustwrapper.
Pure and Applied Mathematics; A Series of Monographs and Textbooks. This book will be valuable as an introduction to certain fundamental aspects of algebraic geometry. The primary aim of the monograph is to give a self-contained exposition of Zariski's famous memoir. A secondary aim is to partially expand some of the results to nonzero characteristic. A basic knowledge of commutative algebra is the only prerequisite for understanding the book. A few light marks to endpapers and outer page edges. Wrapper is edge-creased with a few small chips and nicks.
