  As the post says "math doesn't rot". There's lots of innovation on the more advanced end, but if you want to understand the basics, not that much has changed.

  The fundamentals of Ray Tracing are very simple and haven't changed. Most of the advances in Ray Tracing are either simulating complicated materials (e.g. skin, or perfect simulations of car paint) or speed optimizations advancing the quest for real time Ray Tracing.

  I think you'll find old books like these quite the treasure. The fundamental concepts don't change, and there's a lot of old books out there you can have on your doorstep for less than $10.
