I can't be the only person here, other that the OP, who is excited by this?

(Thanks Mikhael! Ordered :-) )

Shame there isn’t an excerpt

Please please please make it more informative about his production process than Marc Weidenbaum's 33-1/3 book on Selected Ambient Works Vol. II.

That's by far the most disappointing book I've read in that series (esp. given the author's history) - with all the anorak trainspotting detail about online album ID databases and song glyphs, but precisely zero insight into how/why RDJ did what he did sonically.

It's more fun if you just watch his interviews and take everything at face value.
