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 Henry

I'm fretting over my weight - I seem to have gained a couple of kilos instwad of taking them off...
Still, I'm skiing next week - that'll kick start my metabolism and I've started jogging of an evening, so they'll have come off by the spring...

There are some great books by Charles River Media - the "gems" series is pretty good and held in high regard (mostly).Originally posted by NickFitz View PostI decided to pop into Borders to see if they had a copy of High Performance MySQL.

Michael Abrash's Graphics Programming Black Book was probably the last title I bought on the subject though - now a free download. Jeff Atwood likes it too.Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?Comment
