Looking for a good book on mixing

I would love to hear what people recomend. I am looking to study the art of the mixing process. Not so much the recording process as the mixing down process. I was looking at some books today and it seems that there where three sections, casual interviews with big time studio folks, very general studio stuff "this is a mixer" type talk, or physics of sound typs talk. I would love to see a book where the chapters are "eq and compression techniques of the bass drum" and so on.

Thanks for any tips.

Mixing with your mind looks great but it is a hundred bucks. Not that a book cant be worth a hundred bucks but I think I will start with a slightly less costly option. I am going to go grab The Mixing Engineer's Handbook to get me started. Thanks for the tips. If there are any other good books I would love to hear about them. More reading and learning and less buying gear. Ya right lets see how long this lasts
