I really have enjoyed your Teach Yourself Music books. They are very easy to use and very easy to understand. This one is my second book and I have showed my Piano instructor these books also, and I believe she has ordered a couple.

A great intro for understanding Jazz

This book/CD is great! It explains how to play Jazz in a very clear and easy-to-understand way. Especially good if you don't have a Jazz background. The music examples are fun to play along with the CD. I love it!
