As an innocent bystander my perception is that B-Rep modelling is 75% academically well known and 25% implementation specific black magic.
Academic works:
Mäntylä: "Solid modeling"
Faigin: "Curves and Surfaces for Computer-Aided Geometric Design"
Stroud: "Boundary representation modeling techniques"
Implementations: Parasolid, Acis, OpenCascade.
From implementation point of it's CSG (i.e. implementing the boolean operations) that will be among the biggest hurdles and where most of the black art is.
