Hello! I want to become proficient in paraview visualization and am not sure which book or resource suits be best. Bookwise I thought " Visualization Toolkit: An Object-Oriented Approach to 3D Graphics" will do the job but the review on Amazon are not that promising. Would be happy if someone can guide a beginner on where to start. Already know the basics but want to perform high end graphics with animations like slicing through parts with python scripts etc., thank you very much!

Some good resources are referenced [here](https://www.paraview.org/resources/), including

1. [ParaView Users Guide](https://www.paraview.org/paraview-guide/)
2. [Tutorials](https://www.paraview.org/tutorials/)

I’d highly recommend you begin with the [ParaView Tutorial](https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/The_ParaView_Tutorial), if you’re new to ParaView.
