★★★★☆

I absolutely loved Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 5: Ray-Tracing! It completely changed my perspective on webgpu. At first I wasn't sure about JavaScript, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Computers & Technology 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 Web Development & Design. What I appreciated most was how the book made ray-tracing feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!

Foundations of Graphics & Compute: Volume 5: Ray-Tracing offers a compelling take on webgpu, though not without flaws. While the treatment of graphics is excellent, I found the sections on Web Development & Design less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Computers & Technology that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing ray-tracing more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Web Development & Design will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on webgpu, if not the definitive work.
