Good text book for computer graphics

Nice

I'm actually reading this in bits and pieces, and...um, I'm reading the 2nd edition, not the 3rd. That's plenty advanced for me. Trying to get a handle on lighting in OpenGL, and also there is a fun chapter on fractals and other ways to represent infinity programmatically/graphically.
