All its missing is the kit...

If you want a book that takes you through EVERY procedural aspect of assisting (film or NLE) then this is probably the book for you. One drawback is that it might not be as specific as you may like, as it caters for Film, AVID, Lightworks... and it won't tell you which buttons to press.

An outstanding technical and warmly human editing manual.

This is the third and extensively updated version of Norman Hollyn's fantastic in depth review of what really goes into both working on and in the film editing industry. Presented in a format that puts you in the role of an apprentice editor, it covers so many of the details that one would learn only with on the job experience.

Excellant

Every aspect of film editing is covered in this wonderful book. It gets a little technical in spots but its a great book nonetheless. Needs an update. The film editing business has gone digital in many respects and this book shows its age, since that topic isn't discussed. An essential guide to purists still editing on film.
