a book i find that is easy to learn form is      i dont know the title real 
but it was put out by visual and at the top it says   read less learn more   
and it has a lot of pictures in it so you realy dont have to read a lot the 
web site is www.idgbooks.com but you can try 
http://www.hungryminds.com/3Dvisual/index.html it has the visual books and 
just look around your sure to find something here is one book i found there 
http://catalog.hungryminds.com/product.asp?isbn=0764535404 i think there is 
more but i like there books becuse they show you what they are pushing and 
that i would do that first and then move on to a nother book so when you get 
to a nother book that is bigger you wont realy have to find out what they 
want you to do i did that once it took me a long time to find out what they 
wanted and there was not to many pictures well i hope i did not get you 
confused i hope i helped you some
