In this textbook, 1 have tried to lay emphasis on the fundamental principles. The test and numerous illustrative pictorial diagrams are presented in an easy-to-digest form. In fact, I have tried to cultivate the three dimensional imagination of the reader. Difficult topics, like projections of straight lines, planes, solids, sections of solids, development of surfaces of solids, penetration, orthographic reading and isometric drawings are made simpler by three dimensional illustrations. A unique notation system is framed and adopted by me to make understanding easier.
