While Ray-Tracing Pocket Book (Paperback) makes several valuable points about 3D, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of graphics seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to rendering. That said, the sections on graphics 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.
