Anybody recommend a good straight forward dog training book?

Bishop Burton.....to be honest, I am not loving it and have lost a lot of enthusiasm since starting and I'm not even half way through the first year haha!
Sian R. replied:
Puppies or adults? Life Skills for Puppies is awesome. And for a good intro do positive reinforcement training then The Idiots Guide to Positive Dog Traiing by Pam Dennison is worth looking at.
Michael M. replied:
the Dog Vinci Code by John Rogerson, and how to teach a new dog old tricks by Dr. Ian Dunbar.
Erin R. replied:
Positive Puppy Training Works by Joel Walton the Ian Dunbar books are good too
Maureen B. replied:
Also, Puppy Start Right is another good one.

Can anyone recommend a dog trainer that comes to your home? I've got a four and half month old husky. He knows loads of commands but only does them when he feels like it.
