Based on the name of the author, Jacco Bikker, I can blindly recommend this. He has decades of experience and knows how to combine modern computer graphics algorithms from the academic world with real world low level optimizations and a sauce of magic to create state of the art ray tracers. Disclaimer: my master thesis work was part of his PhD dissertation. As a teenager I read his articles on flipCode and due to sheer coincidence he ended up as my thesis supervisor.
