The wife is looking to buy me something for Christmas. I was thinking a good brewing how-to book. I have the dummies guide and brewing up a business. I'm only new to this, any suggestions?

Garry

Radical Brewing by Randy Mosher is good craic.

How to Brew by John Palmer is the go to book for beginners.

Loads of suggestions here to.

One I found useful was - "Brewing Classic Styles: 80 Winning Recipes Anyone Can Brew"

http://www.amazon.com/Brewing-Classic-Styles-Winning-Recipes/dp/0937381926

I've also got "CloneBrews: Recipes for 200 Brand-Name Beers". Although I found the instructions a bit sparse, it does give a good history of each beer, and a run down of how to create your own clone beers.

Cheers Gary going to get the john palmer book

I found John Palmers book to be good. There is an online copy of this, but hardcopy is better and updated.

The online version of palmers book is at http://www.howtobrew.com/  I found it very useful aswell. And it will give you something to read while you're waiting for deliveries.
