Click on a book that you're interested in and they suggest that you might be interested in a companion book. I'm not sure that you get either of them cheaper if you buy both, but I'm also sure that Amazon is counting on few people to stop and think before experiencing that warm buzz of consumerism that wells up inside as you caress the "Buy both now!" button with your mouse pointer. The companion book to "The Film Developing Cookbook: Advanced Techniques for Film Developing" by Anchell & Troop is "The Darkroom Cookbook" (2nd ed.) by... Anchell. For those of you who actually OWN or have READ *both* these books, could you please let me know if they overlap greatly, or if they indeed are complementary, as Amazon would suggest. It seems a little unnecessary to spend an additional $24.49 for the darkroom cookbook if it covers pretty much the same stuff as the film developing one.
