    Wide range of interesting topics, and with good content. Good value for money.
    I had stoped buying the series some time ago, complaining that the articles where shallow and short. Well.. this is not the case any more!
    I didnt dig too deep into the book yet, I only had it for a week now, but it looks very interesting and detailed!

    if your interested in Deferred Rendering, then this is the book for you. It gave me a better idea what techniques Deferred Rendering\Shading use; its problems with antialiasing, the use of multiple lights, and shadows. Also, an enjoyable read.

    There's several great examples on deferred rendering in the book. Mostly optimizations, but the chapter on deferred transparency was exceptionally useful.
