Evening denizens
I've been shopping
I decided to pop into Borders to see if they had a copy of High Performance MySQL. They didn't, but I chanced upon a splendid tome entitled Mathematics and Physics for Programmers. It's aimed specifically at game developers, and jolly good it looks too
I learned or worked out at least some of this stuff when I was a games developer, so a lot of it will just be recapitulating stuff I already know; but there's bound to be plenty of new stuff, or better ways of doing things than I ever worked out
Best of all, they've got a special offer on all computing books at the moment, so it was £7.49 less than the Amazon price
Also purchased: The Collected Poems of A E Housman and 100 Short Stories by O HenryComment
