Is How to Brew by John Palmer worth buying for an experienced brewer?

I also like Brewing Classic Styles.

This book is gloriously complex if that's your thing....

How does it compare to Chris White's book about yeast? I have For the Love of Hops and Water and I was thinking about getting Yeast and Malt next.

I got it for Christmas. Its simple and in depth. A real brewing tool. I love hearing john, tasty, jamil, and others on the BN everyday.

I really like "Home Brew Beyond The Basics" by Mike Karnowski. If you already have the basics down, this book has some useful additional information and many good recipes.

I use the vintage beers book by Ronald Pattinson quite a lot but it's fairly specific as a manual. Great reference though.

Yeast is much less in depth but an easier read and streamlined. I feel Yeast is a mandatory read for a brewer without a professional education (Siebel/Davis).
