Default A good book for NL holdem

Can someone recommend a good NL holdem book that will teach me tight aggressive play? Or a few books


Cheers,
Pots

Wait a couple months. 2+2 is coming out with Harrington On Hold'em.

harrington's book is on beginning rounds of tourneys technically. but the concepts between early round tourneys and cash games are similar says mason.

skalansky and majorkong are working on a NL book together also says mason.

A good jump-start for me was McEvoy & Daugherty's book ("New Player's Guide"). Very quick and easy read, and it paid off at the SNGs. I just yesterday got Reuben & Caffione's PL & NL Poker to take me deeper.

But there are a whole slew of NL Hold 'Em books coming out. I wonder which one will become the new NL Hold 'Em Bible?

Ciaffone's PL & NL Poker is the best available for cash games.

SuperSystem is next best.

I read SuperSystem. I found that the loose/aggressive strategy doesn't work for me. It gives me an idea of what hands to play, but it is more of Rant than anything else.
