This is a bit technical but sort of covers all three of your topics. It's also written by the guy who wrote Max (Miller S Puckette), but uses Puredata for the examples. Best of all though, it's free.

Found this guide to synthesis helpful - especially if you have reaktor:

Might not teach you much you don't already know though...
