Great starting point if you hope to get into the gaming industry. The questions at the end of each chapter are thought provoking and make you research about this career path.
Only part that I didn't enjoy was that the bios for the industry professionals were longer than what they had to say about the industry itself.
Keep in mind that this book was published in 2010, so some of the information will be outdated. While the knowledge is still strong, the expectations on how resumes, portfolios, and websites should look needs to fit in with today's standards.
Would still highly recommend.
