Foundations of Graphics & Compute - Volume 3: Computing (Hardback)
If you want practical clarity, this is a strong pick: webgpu, wgsl, programming, graphics presented in a way that turns into decisions, not just notes.
A friend asked what I learned and I could actually explain it—because the webgpu chapter is built for recall. (Side note: if you like WebGPU Programming Guide: Interactive Graphics & Compute Programming with WebGPU & WGSL (Paperback), you’ll likely enjoy this too.)
