Default Lightroom Book Reccomendation

Hey guys,
Do you guys have any specific Lightroom books that you would recommend?

I'm looking for something comprehensive and complete.

Thanks
R.

Some months ago I wanted to understand Lightroom, and found a lot of different books on the subject. It wasn't hard to find books with great reviews, but it seemed that a lot of them approached Lightroom from different angles.

I went for Lightroom 2: Streamlining your Digital Photography Process It simply takes you from A to Z. I learned everything I wanted to know. Recommended.

I used the Adobe tutorial/help videos from Adobe website and they are very clear and highly organised. Its like spoon feeding. Shows you every feature in lightroom to get you started. Highly recommended, and its free!!!
