Getting back to the main thread - books are bit convuluted really, but if you do get one "ceramic and stone tiling" by john ripley is pretty good but it can make it all sound a bit daunting. I can imagine it would get a bit like a mechanics manual - completely covered - but in adhesive.

Also videos/dvds are just a total joke. I watched one and it said you start at the windowsills (I assume you knock one up if there isnt one already there - and re-introduce yourselves to the neighbours) and centre it and work out from there onto the main wall with the groutlines matching up! even if this leaves an impossibly thin strip of tile at your corner!

A combination of a short course and work experience with a good tiler is the ideal situtaion I would say.
