Understanding PHIGS, The Hierarchical Computer Graphics Standard
by Maxine D. Brown (author)

this is a generic PHIGS book, not a vendor product description

not sure of the correct name,
IBM's graPHIGS reference manual (for their mainframe and workstation
implementations of PHIGS)
one of their manuals (can't remember which one) is a fairly generic
intro. to PHIGS which describes
fundamentals more than it does implementation specifics of their
graPHIGS.  It is very well written
and I think very well organized (I am a formed univ. prof. who used to
teach undergrad graphics).
Maybe you know afriend who works at a place that uses graPHIGS.
