Books
This is a list of books that I recommend or that have been recommended to me by someone I trust. If you click on them and buy them, I get money.
Update: Frank suggested I provide a place where people can comment on books they’ve read, so I’ve enabled comments for this page. I’ll be monitoring those comments closely, so keep them on topic please. Good suggestion Frank. Thanks.

Recommended books
Pivot Table Data Crunching, Excel 2010, Mr Excel series, Bill Jensen and Michael Alexander – first class reference; easy to understand and follow; one of the most useful books I have bought in some time; QUE
Excel 2010 In depth, Bill Jensen, a more advanced reference book with a different approach to many; very stong on functions; QUE
I also use Excel Pivot Tables and Charts, Peter Aitken, Excel Dashboards and Reports, Alexander and Walkenbach and Favourite Excel 2007 Tips and Tricks, Walkenbach but I have not updated them to the 2010 versions. The usual problem is, are they sufficiently different from the previous verson?
