A (Potentially) Good Book

http://www.amazon.com/Texturing-Modeling-Third-Procedural-Approach/dp/1558608486?ie=UTF8&tag=procedu-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969

According to this blog (also an interesting read if you like procedural content), this book on procedural texturing and modelling techniques is peerless in its field. Ken Perlin and Steve Worley both wrote chapters in it, to give you an idea of the pedigree. I almost expected to find a chapter by JP.

:P

Buying instructional books for digital disciplines always feels inefficient to me, given the rate of change, but I think this sort of thing can be the exception given the solid theoretical underpinnings which can end up being used and tweaked for years.
