I have been popping into the library during work lunchtimes to read brewing books. The only one they have is Big Book of Brewing - Dave Line, which is excellent to read (it makes me thirsty), but I believe it's pretty old. Is there a popular textbook that's taken this book's place?

Homebrewing: The CAMRA Guide by Graham Wheeler, is the next definitive work . . . Unfortunately it is also out of print, and getting hold of a copy involves the exchange of large sums of money on EBAY.
How To Brew By John Palmer is an american book that is actually very good, although he does have one or two strange US Based ideas. . . . And all teh recipes/measurements are in the US system.

Just got Palmers How to Brew.
Now waiting on my Brewing Classic Styles by Jamil Zanisheff
Both US based but nice and upto date compared to some of the UK versions!
We need some new UK based brewing books, until then I will read all the US ones with a pinch of salt
