Comparing Little Black Book of Ray-Tracing and Path-Tracing (Paperback) with other resources

As a senior developer, I'm often skeptical of technical books, but Little Black Book of Ray-Tracing and Path-Tracing (Paperback) surprised me. The authors don't just explain how things work—they explain why they work that way, which is crucial for truly understanding these concepts. The sections on ray-tracing are worth the price alone.

I'm about halfway through Little Black Book of Ray-Tracing and Path-Tracing (Paperback) and it's already changed how I think about debugging. The systematic approach they describe has saved me hours this week alone.
