Wang,
Just wanted to let you know that I had pre-ordered the cookbook through Amazon, and got it on the day it published - very nicely done. It's already proved useful in couple of cases. Thanks!

Hi all, First of all, this is NOT a joke on April Fool's Day. :-) I'm glad to announce the publication of the book OpenSceneGraph 3.0 Cookbook, which is yet another OSG book written by me, with the help of Dr. Qian Xuelei. Thanks to my technique reviewers: Torben Dannhauer, Vincent Bourdier, and Chris Hanson. Also many thanks to Robert Osfield and the whole OSG community! Exactly 100 recipes are introduced in this book (some may not appear in any of the pages because of the page count limitation, please refer to the source code repo). You should be familiar with the basic concepts of the OpenSceneGraph API before reading this book as it includes some advanced techniques like a initial deferred shading implementation, quick integration with physics engines, and so on. There are totally 9 chapters focusing on different fields, including the installation, nodes, geometries, camera manipulating, animations, effects, terrain building, data management, GUI integration, and a bonus chapter which is removed from the book content because of the too high page count but added as a free sample chapter on the Packt website. You can buy the book at the Packt Publishing website: http://www.packtpub.com/openscenegrap-3-for-advanced-3d-programming-usin g-api-cookbook/book and/or Amazon.co.uk: http://www.amazon.co.uk/OpenSceneGraph-3-Cookbook-R-Wang/dp/184951688X The source code can be downloaded freely at: https://github.com/xarray/osgRecipes Cheers, Wang Rui
