I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with Ray-Tracing Pocket Book (Paperback), but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains 3D made everything click for me. I've been struggling with 3D for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about ray tracing - it reminded me so much of my own experience with 3D. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

As a scholar in ray tracing, I found Ray-Tracing Pocket Book (Paperback) to be an exceptional contribution to the field. The author's approach to rendering is both innovative and rigorous, providing fresh insights that challenge conventional wisdom. Particularly noteworthy is the discussion of 3D, which offers a compelling framework for understanding rendering. While some may argue that graphics, the evidence presented is thorough and convincing. This book is essential reading for anyone serious about ray tracing.

While Ray-Tracing Pocket Book (Paperback) makes several valuable points about rendering, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of graphics seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to 3D. That said, the sections on ray tracing are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in 3D, this could be a truly outstanding work.
