DIY books for bikes

Any recommendations? Would like to get one myself and was thinking of buying one. With Christmas coming up I might even suggest it as a pressie that someone could get me if they can't think of anything. Looking at 'Cordee Zinn And The Art Of Road Bike Maintenance' at the moment, any use?

Very good -I heartily recommend it... first port of call for any jobs (followed by the mighty Sheldon of course)
