Title: Not a good book
Review: This was not a good book at all. The code is extremely hard to read because he puts everything in wrapper functions which are put in more wrapper functions which are put in even more wrapper functions, most of which are totally unnecessary. Throughout the book he builds on the same program, only showing you the modifications made, so you have try to remember what the previous version looked like to try and put it all together. Very confusing. Kind of a pity too because it looks like he covers alot of excellent information, it's just very hard to read his sample code. if you are a veteran windows programmer, you may be able to make some sense out of it but i recommend DirectDraw Programming by Bret Timmons although it ONLY covers DirectDraw =
