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 ray tracing 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 rendering - it reminded me so much of my own experience with graphics. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

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

The author's approach to ray tracing is both innovative and rigorous, providing fresh insights that challenge conventional wisdom. Particularly noteworthy is the discussion of ray tracing, which offers a compelling framework for understanding rendering. While some may argue that rendering, the evidence presented is thorough and convincing. This book is essential reading for anyone serious about ray tracing.
