While WebGPU API: An Introduction makes several valuable points about webgpu, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of shader seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to wgsl. That said, the sections on webgpu are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in shader, this could be a truly outstanding work.

WebGPU API: An Introduction is a comprehensive exploration of webgpu that manages to be both accessible to newcomers and valuable to experts. The book is divided into 5 sections, each building thoughtfully on the last. Part 2's discussion of webgpu is particularly strong, with clear examples and practical applications. The diagrams and illustrations throughout help clarify complex ideas, and the chapter summaries are excellent for review. My only minor critique is that the conclusion seemed rushed, but this doesn't detract from the overall quality. This will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field.
