What are your favourite design books? I really have a LOT, but are some favourites of me:

Adobe Illustrator CS2 WOW! book - Sharon Steuer
If you want to learn how to make cool illustrations in Illustrator this a great book. Most books only tell you the basics of a program. But this books tells ALL the secrets of professionals using this program! It tells much more than just basics.

I've got a human in my throat - Worth1000
This is book full with funny tricks you can do to photos in Photoshop.
For example, blend 2 animals into 1, remove heads from persons, cover something with graffiti, make a person look 50 years older, etc. And everything looks real!

Those two books sound very useful. I don't actually refer to any books to learn, I like to just experiment with the software. I might check those two titles out the next time I go and visit the book store. Got anymore good recommendations? Also do those books contain information for beginners or are they aimed more at intermediate/advanced users?

I'm addicted to books, and I've read many. So if you have something particular that you want to learn, I maybe can give you a tip for a book.

And those books are also for beginners. But they go to intermediate more quickly than other books. So you can use them as a beginner too, but then you should really have the motivation to really learn it.
