For the price, the best illustrations of technique that I've found. So many books just have very detailed verbal descriptions of how to do things, but for visual learners (as many artists are) a series of photos works wonders to teach technique. This book has that in abundance. Great examples and information. The only quibble is that I felt the organization and/or index could have been better, because it can be difficult to find an exact topic that you're looking for. Sometimes it takes just thumbing through the relevant section of the book to find what you need to know.
