I absolutely loved QuickStart Guide to Vulkan Compute! It completely changed my perspective on Vulkan Compute. At first I wasn't sure about Vulkan Compute, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains High Performance Computing 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 Compute Shaders. What I appreciated most was how the book made GPU Programming feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!

QuickStart Guide to Vulkan Compute offers a compelling take on Vulkan Compute, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Graphics API is excellent, I found the sections on Compute Shaders less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Compute Shaders that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Computers & Technology more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Parallel Processing will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on GPU Programming, if not the definitive work.
