Great beginner's resource4
This is a very thorough book including many different applications for polymer clay as well as tools, techniques, etc. As an experienced clayer, I did not find anything new in this book and have seen much of what is covered in other books and on-line. However, if you are a starting out in the craft, it is a great resource to have.

Fantastic5
Having recently started playing with Polymer Clay, I purchased several books and this one is by far my favorite. If you want to make beads, this book has clear instructions for every type. I would recommend it to anyone just starting, in fact I purchased a second one for a friend.
