One strong suggestion- buy Keith Code's Twist of the Wrist, and its iterations. Lots of great info, and although I imagine there might be others out there as good, it's pretty much the gold standard.

Cheers

MSF is excellent!

The above advice in a nutshell is good - and Keith Code's book is great, but I'd just add - only once you know the basics and have at least a little experience (so you can relate better to the advice in the book)!
