As a scholar in webgpu, I found Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 5: Ray-Tracing to be an exceptional contribution to the field. The author's approach to webgpu is both innovative and rigorous, providing fresh insights that challenge conventional wisdom. Particularly noteworthy is the discussion of webgpu, which offers a compelling framework for understanding graphics. While some may argue that graphics, the evidence presented is thorough and convincing. This book is essential reading for anyone serious about webgpu.

I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 5: Ray-Tracing, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains webgpu made everything click for me. I've been struggling with webgpu for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about compute - it reminded me so much of my own experience with graphics. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

While Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 5: Ray-Tracing makes several valuable points about webgpu, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of compute seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to webgpu. That said, the sections on compute are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in ray-tracing, this could be a truly outstanding work.
