Title: Extremely Dissapointing
Product review: I had read John's previous book, and was happy with it, so I decided to order this one. It came in the mail today and I stealthed down to the basement couch and immersed myself for an hour. I feel awful giving this book a 1-star review, but it really isn't good at all. More than half the book is a rehash of the DirectX help files, the other half seems like a hurried mess, Only 250 pages or so were given to a topic that could have stretched into 700 or more. Not only that, the time that isn't spent recounting the SDK documentation is erronous! John mis-describes perepsective projection, the transformation pipeline, the set of lights supported by Direct3D, the list goes on and on.I strongly recommend against purchasing this book. :(
