This is a nimble textbook for a short but dense course, one of the few which, besides computational geometry, also deals with computational topology and persistence. In 110 pages the author guides the student through quite a lot of subjects, always with the task of enabling him/her to produce algorithms, but never forgetting to enrich the reader’s culture. This is well represented by the very first chapter, where historical roots (from Platonic solids to space filling) are reviewed, but already with a computational attitude. (zbMath)
