★★★★☆

Vulkan+Ray-Tracing/GLSL/Graphics All-In-One (Paperback) offers a compelling take on Vulkan, though not without flaws. While the treatment of GLSL is excellent, I found the sections on GLSL less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Vulkan that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Rendering & Ray Tracing more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Vulkan will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on ray tracing, if not the definitive work.

I absolutely loved Vulkan+Ray-Tracing/GLSL/Graphics All-In-One (Paperback)! It completely changed my perspective on Vulkan. At first I wasn't sure about Vulkan, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Vulkan Programming 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 Graphics & Design. What I appreciated most was how the book made Vulkan feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
