Training books

Thanks for all the advice in the strength training thread and the varius other pointers, since the training for road cycling seems to be fairly different to what I'm used to I'm thinking of getting myself a book on bike training to get to grips with the basics. Trouble is there seems to be a bewildering number available!

Does anyone have any recommendations of goos books or advice on ones to avoid?

Thanks
Jon

Smart cycling by Arnie Baker, you should be able to pick it up on amazon for a couple of quid.

"Cyclists Training Bible" by Joe Friel usually gets good reviews but I've not read it myself.
