This year was the first I've bought any books from the Dummies series, I can state now that I am a convert. I am also new to Wordpress, if not I.T. generally. I found this book particularly helpful, clear and answered all the questions that a dummy such as me would ask. I highly recommend this book to any beginner of Wordpress.
