The official source of information on POV-Ray is on
<URL:http://www.povray.org>.

The Official POV-Ray CD-ROM can be ordered via the worldwide web at
<URL:http://www.aussie.org/products/>.
The Persistence of Vision Ray-Tracer (POV-Ray) User's Documentation 3.0
can be downloaded at <URL:ftp://ftp.povray.org/pub/povray/Official-3.0/Docs/>.
I recommend printing the Postscript version (povdoc.ps), which gives a
four hundred-page, two-side-formatted (so that you can print it on two hundred
sheets of paper and have the odd and even pages corresponding on the correct
side), very clear and comprehensive book. Any question about POV-Ray finds its
answer in this document, which should be read before posting a "how to ..."
question in these newsgroups.

"Ray Tracing Creations," Wells and Young; Waite Group Press; ISBN
1-878739-27-1: $39.95 US.
"Ray-Tracing Worlds With Pov-Ray" Enzmann, Krezschmar, and Young; Waite
Group Press; ISBN 1-878739-64-6 : $44.95 US.
Both may be out of print, but I have heard of the later on shelves
recently. If you can order one, order Ray-Tracing Worlds (my opinion).
