It's definitely not a "bible" and furthermore it's out of print (but the
library of your university may have it), and it covers only splines
and surface patches. However, I like this book:

Su Bu-Qing and Liu Ding-Yuan
Computational Geometry
Curve and Surface Modeling
Academic Press 1989
ISBN 0-12-675610-4

I hope this helps.
