Little Black Book of Ray-Tracing and Path-Tracing is a comprehensive exploration of graphics that manages to be both accessible to newcomers and valuable to experts. The book is divided into 7 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 1's discussion of ray-tracing is particularly strong, with clear examples and practical applications. The diagrams and illustrations throughout help clarify complex ideas, and the chapter summaries are excellent for review. My only minor critique is that more primary sources would strengthen the argument, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.

I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with Little Black Book of Ray-Tracing and Path-Tracing, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains ray-tracing made everything click for me. I've been struggling with graphics for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about graphics - it reminded me so much of my own experience with ray-tracing. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

While Little Black Book of Ray-Tracing and Path-Tracing makes several valuable points about ray-tracing, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of graphics seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to graphics. That said, the sections on compute are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in graphics, this could be a truly outstanding work.
