Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 1: Primer offers a compelling take on programming, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Computers & Technology is excellent, I found the sections on Programming less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about programming that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Programming 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 Books, if not the definitive work.
