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