Been looking for a good homebrew book, but there are so many out there. Just wanted to see what you would recommend. I was looking for something that would give me tips, terms, and how to AG. I have made a few beers, just want to learn all I can.

Yeast is also a very good reference.
Soon to be followed by Water ( John Palmer and Colin Kaminski ), grain, and hops ( don't know who's writing the last 2 ).
How to Brew is my go to book.
Any book you get, that's more than ~5 years old, I'd check the info against current methods posted here (for brewing)... Also look at the Got Mead web site for info on (obviously) making mead. Look in the discussion area for more up to date methods there too. A good amount of the time, methods published 8-10+ years ago are no longer followed due to advances made since then. Things such as better ingredients, including yeast, have made some of the published techniques unnecessary (such as racking to a bright tank/secondary)...
The next book on my list to get is "Radical Brewing"...
have a copy of this being delivered tomorrow. looking forward to some good reading this weekend
but personally, I found the RDWHAHB mantra a bit repetitious after the first 27 times he said it.
