Good Book recommendation for Lighting in Photography?

I would like to buy a Book talking only about lighting in photography in Studio/outdoor/portrait/ weddings …etc
any good recommendations ??

Light Science and Magic

http://www.amazon.com/Light-Science-Introduction-Photographic-Lighting/dp/0240808193

This is a good book that teaches the principals of lighting, and the effects that can result. Shape, tone, texture.

The downside is that it isn’t really focused on immediate applications.

The plus side. they take very simple concepts, like curves, boxes, shadow, contrast, texture, and give you simple objects to practice these principals. It is then the photographers creativity toi decide how to apply these techniques.
