I absolutely loved Vulkan API - Owners' Workshop Manual (2nd Edition) - Computer Programming (Beginners Onwards): Everything You Need To Get Started With The Vulkan API! It completely changed my perspective on programming. At first I wasn't sure about DirectX, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains 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 & Multimedia. 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!

Vulkan API - Owners' Workshop Manual (2nd Edition) - Computer Programming (Beginners Onwards): Everything You Need To Get Started With The Vulkan API offers a compelling take on programming, though not without flaws. While the treatment of graphics is excellent, I found the sections on Books less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about Programming that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Programming more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for graphics will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on compute, if not the definitive work.
