Coming up at Siggraph 90 (hopefully) is a book edited by Andrew Glassner
called "Graphics Gems", containing lots of algorithms, tips, and tricks
for 2D and 3D graphics. 

DISCLAIMER: one of the articles is mine.

From the table of contents I've seen, this should be a VERY handy thing
to have. I believe there will be some source code included.
