Everything else is like the icing on the rotten fish." Clever captions, many accompanying photos publisher of Austin publisher institutions like Einstein's arcade or Human Marvels Enigma publisher and Katzen, are part and parcel of the text flow. Fat Man is not the guy from Jake and the Fatman, but his brother Dave Sanger has won four Grammys drumming for Asleep at the Wheel. There are descriptions of technical stuff like MIDI and .wav files, but nothing head-spinning. Fat Man runs through the basics and history of game audio and the useful software, not to mention life, fashion, and how to make a homemade didgeridoo, but there's no more than a cursory look at technique. Which is why this book is equal parts entertainment and education, perfect for a novice or anybody curious about the field of game audio. Hip-hop karate classic PaRappa the Rapper gets mad props, which is reason enough to recommend this book.
