Complete Book

I've found this book to be very complete. It provides both background and step-by-step instructions. It also recommends the types of tools that are necessary to perform the maintenance. I recommend this book even if you aren't planning to do the work yourself. Knowledge is power, especially when you go to the automechanic's shop.
Give Yourself a Clue!

Even if you don't intend to do your own work, you owe it to yourself to check with Chilton's to see what's involved. I knew a set of front brakes on my Camry was going to run upwards of $250 at the dealership. But after reviewing the step by step instructions with illustrations, I knew I could do this one myself. Great way to get to know your car better. My only complaint - the book 'construction' isn't great. The paper is a step up from newsprint, and I'm not impressed. All in all, worth the investment; this one paid for itself the first time I used it.
Good quality book for the basic DIYer
