I absolutely loved Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 1 - Primer! It completely changed my perspective on programming. At first I wasn't sure about Books, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains graphics is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in compute. What I appreciated most was how the book made Programming feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!

Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 1 - Primer offers a compelling take on programming, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Programming is excellent, I found the sections on graphics less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Programming that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Computers & Technology more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Programming will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Programming, if not the definitive work.
