Can anyone recommend some decent clicker training books for dogs?

Like the look of the Karen prior one but it gets mixed reviews.

Thanks!

Don't shoot the dog by Karen Pryor is the original clicker training book. It doesn't do step by step behaviours but the theory and method behind clicker training. Another of her books "lads before the wind" is about her time as a dolphin trainer using operant conditioning and is a good read.
There are many other clicker books that are more specific so it goes depend what you want to train. Personally nothing can replace watching a good clicker trainer in action. My obedience trainer is amazing in what she can achieve with any dog in s very short period of time

I understand the concept having read up on it a fair bit but with the focus on training horses - looking for something more detailed which focuses on training specific behaviour esp around recall and basic obedience
