While Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 1: Primer makes several valuable points about programming, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of graphics seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to graphics. That said, the sections on graphics are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in compute, this could be a truly outstanding work.
