Good sound editing book?

Anyone know of any good sound editing books? I don't know much about db's and all that but I want to learn. I would kinda like a sound editing book for dummies. Or a mixing book for audio.

Thanks much!

Look on Amazon for Audio post production for digital video.

It covers first principles through to mastering.

I thought it was pretty good.

Try "Producing Great Sound for Digital Video" by Jay Rose. It lists for $39.95 but I found it at Half Priced Books for the ridiculously low price of $8 about six months ago. Great book. It "includes an audio CD of tutorials and high quality samples".

Jay Rose contributes articles to several video magazines.
