Terrific guide for "pop" musicians

Mike Miller has provided a user-friendly guide for the many "pop" musicians {I.e. non-degreed} that will prove to be an invaluable tool in teaching basic arranging and orchestration techniques. Particularly useful is the addition of his own original composition that threads through the entire book (and CD) as an example of many musical styles and respective arrangements/orchestrations. Not necessarily for the seasoned professional but highly recommended for everyone else.
