Insightful, Practical, and Engaging

I approached this book as someone relatively new to programming and graphics and compute, and I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly I grasped the concepts around programming, graphics, compute. Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 1: Primer has a gift for explaining complex ideas clearly without oversimplifying. The exercises at the end of each chapter were invaluable for reinforcing the material. It's rare to find a book that serves both as an introduction and a reference work, but this one does so admirably. From the moment I started reading, I could tell this book was different. With over 11 years immersed in programming and graphics and compute, I've seen my fair share of texts on programming, graphics, compute, but Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 1: Primer's approach is refreshingly original. The discussion on programming challenged my assumptions and offered a new lens through which to view the subject.
