While I'm very impressed with the success Sid Meier has achieved as a professional game developer, this book is surprisingly bland. I imagine that if you have an intense affection for one or more of his games, it's cool to go "behind the scenes" about what was happening in Sid Meier's life at the time the game came out, but if you're a professional software developer and/or game developer, there is limited value in these pages.I wish this book contained more stories about the challenges Sid and his co-workers had to overcome in creating certain games, or the tools and/or programming languages he used to build games (and why he picked them). It would be cool too to learn about the challenges in porting games from one platform to another.I don't want to give the impression that this book is poorly written; Sid Meier is clearly a real smart guy who loves building and playing video games. I just wish he gave us more of a "behind the scenes / under the hood" look at game development.
