In the chapter 4, I see a gross error:
When rendering using radiosity, all
   parts automatically get an ambient value of 0, and a diffuse of 1.

That's absolutely false. When using radiosity, any ambient and diffuse 
defined in a scene, anywhere, are never automaticaly altered in any way. 
You need to take care of that.
