Could anybody reccomend any books that cover the subject of calculating lightmaps aswell as radiosity calculation.

I've read a few breif articles but I'm really hoping there are some more comprehensive books on the subject with code examples etc.

thanks,

I've found the following to be extremely good for general global illumination topics (and radiosity)

- Physically Based Rendering ( http://www.pbrt.org/ )
- Robust Monte Carlo Methods for Light Transport Simulation ( http://graphics.stan...s/veach_thesis/ )
