It is a very good beginner's reference to Grasshopper. There are lots of free materials and more advanced books that have very small image, and you should get them too. But I find having a printed book on my shelf is a wonderful resource. And if you are traveling or just want to curl up with a good tech book, this works. The introduction, discussion, picture, samples and explanations are very helpful, interesting,and achievable. I ever find the glossary of components, inputs and outputs in the back referenced on occasion. I do agree, I would like to see more complex examples and less glossary in V2. Thanks to David for tackling this subject of Visual Programming in Rhino. This book works for Rhino 5 with the Grasshopper, Rhino for Mac WIP or Rhino 6 native Grasshopper. The functionality of Grasshopper between these all these platforms are practically identical. Maybe this should be named like "Introduction to Grasshopper" and that would set manage the expectations better. All in all - I am happy to have this as a reference. Review: Very disappointing - For starters, 2/3 of this book is just an index of the various components, the actual content is less than 100 pages. It’s really lacking in content, demonstrating a few different scripts, and the components that make them, but does very little to explain the why and how, leaving the reader able to do little more than recreate what is in the text. The half hour I spent on YouTube before buying this book was far more useful, and it cost me nothing. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,618,075 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #61 in Transformations Mathematics #271 in 3D Graphic Design #783 in Data Modeling & Design (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 3.4 3.4 out of 5 stars (27) | | Dimensions | 6 x 0.55 x 9 inches | | Edition | 1st | | ISBN-10 | 0831136111 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0831136116 | | Item Weight | 13.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 288 pages | | Publication date | March 14, 2017 | | Publisher | Industrial Press, Inc. | ## Images ![Grasshopper: Visual Scripting for Rhinoceros 3D - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71PnSpjNwXL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Good Introduction to Grasshopper *by M***H on February 8, 2018* I do not agree with the reviews.

I was looking for a good book for my students to use. So when I found out IP was printing this title, I got just a little excited. I received my copy today, and my hopes were dashed. Here's why. I had a friend who was a missionary. He decided to write a book on being a missionary. The front half of the book was good, practical advice. The second half of the book was (and I am serious) the addresses to every embassy of every country we have relations with, just in case you wanted to write them about getting visas, etc. It bloated the book by 50%, was information that changed frequently, and it was information that was readily available on the Internet. This is the same I case I ran into with this title. The first half of the book is good. A range of practical examples that you can copy and play with. Those who are starting in Grasshopper would find this stuff useful and easy to learn from through adaptation. I think the author made a GREAT start and could have expanded from basic examples into even more intermediate and even more advanced examples. That, to me, would have made this THE Grasshopper book to have. And I still think it could be with some retooling! However, the second half is a listing of every single Grasshopper component and the inputs and outputs of each. In other words, stuff you can already see in the Grasshopper interface by positioning your mouse over each of the ports. The listing really doesn't do give much more information than that. So, yeah, disappointed. And in all fairness to the author, I get a sneaking feeling IP may have told him his original manuscript needed more and maybe even suggested doing this. Embassy addresses change and need updating. The book goes out of date very quickly. The difference here is that the front half of the book gives algorithmic ideas that will basically stand from version to version of Grasshopper. The back half is a reference that will certainly see a lot of changes over time - and thus give IP a reason to publish a second and third edition. So, not sure we can fault the author on that. I still think this title has promise, it just needs to dump the printed version of the component index and give more examples and ideas, that's all. Can I suggest for those looking for print material: Consider Arturo Tedeschi's title "Algorithms Aided Design" This is a meaty, timeless, well-illustrated title that will give you a lot of thinking points and bring you back again and again. ## Frequently Bought Together - Grasshopper: Visual Scripting for Rhinoceros 3D (Volume 1) - DIGITAL MEDIA SERIES: GRASSHOPPER --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.is/products/42116987-grasshopper-visual-scripting-for-rhinoceros-3d](https://www.desertcart.is/products/42116987-grasshopper-visual-scripting-for-rhinoceros-3d) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
