I absolutely loved DirectX+HLSL/Graphics/Compute All-in-One! It completely changed my perspective on DirectX. At first I wasn't sure about Rendering, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains Graphics Pipeline 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 Computer Graphics. What I appreciated most was how the book made DirectX feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!

★★★★☆
DirectX+HLSL/Graphics/Compute All-in-One offers a compelling take on DirectX, though not without flaws. While the treatment of GPU Programming is excellent, I found the sections on Ray Tracing less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about GPU Computing that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Compute Shaders more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for DirectX will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Compute Shaders, if not the definitive work.

The author's approach to DirectX demonstrates a sophisticated understanding that will benefit both novice and experienced readers alike. Particularly noteworthy is the discussion on GPU Programming, which provides fresh insights into DirectX 12. The methodological rigor and theoretical framework make this an essential read for anyone interested in GPU Programming. While some may argue that Software Development, the overall quality of the research and presentation is undeniable. This volume will undoubtedly become a standard reference in the field of GPU Computing.
