Features: This book is a national-level planning textbook for general higher education under the "15th Five-Year Plan." It is based on the "Fundamentals of Graphic Science" edited by Tan Jianrong and others, published in 1999, and revised based on the teaching requirements for engineering graphics courses formulated by the Teaching Guidance Committee of Engineering Graphics for Higher Education of the Ministry of Education in 2005, as well as the relevant national standards such as "Technical Drawing" and "Engineering Drawing" released in recent years. This revision has strengthened the content on three-dimensional graphics and multidisciplinary graphic technology. Guided by the principle of broadening the foundation, this textbook constructs a unified platform for graphic expression and graphic thinking with a wide and solid foundation. While emphasizing the basic knowledge, concepts, and methods of descriptive geometry and engineering drawing, it incorporates content such as computer-aided drawing, geometric modeling, and commonly used graphic processing techniques in scientific research and engineering practice, as well as the development trends of CAD. It features the integration of traditional engineering drawing and computer-aided drawing, the combination of fundamental knowledge and disciplinary development, and the comprehensive cultivation of three types of drawing abilities. The textbook system and content exhibit good novelty. This edition is a 21st-century course textbook and has won the First Prize of the China Higher Education Science and Technology Progress Award in 2000 and the First Prize of the National Excellent Textbook Award for Higher Education in 2002. This book adopts the latest national relevant standards and introduces CAD systems according to the latest versions. A companion CD is provided at the back of the book, including electronic teaching plans, exercise solution systems, and other content to meet the needs of multimedia teaching and facilitate student learning. A companion exercise book is also published by Higher Education Press. This book is suitable for undergraduate students of engineering majors in higher education institutions, as well as for correspondence universities, television universities, online colleges, and adult colleges in related fields.
