Default Need book to improve play against player types(LA,LP,TA,TP)

I am working to improve my game for different player types as LAGs etc, plays that is not standard against all opponents.

I have recently read Pshycology of poker which contain some advice but I'd like to read much more on the subject.

Any advice is appreciated,
Erik

pokertips.org had a nice section on this. Most books on poker deal with this issue as well. Gary Carson's Comprehensive Guide to Hold Em has a few nice chapters focusing on this issue. It probably has the most extensive treatment I've seen of this particular issue.

If you read Sklansky's essay on the 8 Mistakes in Poker, found in Getting The Best of It, then you should be able to identify the mistakes that each type of player (and they are greater than just the 4 corners of the grid as discussed by Dr. Al in his psychology book), and derive the appropriate strategies to take advantage of those mistakes. With a true TAG of course, there won't be fundamental mistakes and so the best course especially out of position is simply not to play weak hands with them.
