      Grant's latest addition to his many artist "self-help" books, all published by Allworth (including An Artist's Guide: Making It in New York City), is useful and easy to read. Writing for amateur artists wishing to develop their skills further and partake in a larger art community, Grant disperses a wealth of step-by-step information, practical advice, and resources, including addresses, web sites, and phone numbers. He also discusses current real-life situations that any practicing artist might encounter. The book is divided into four main parts covering education, work space, exhibitions, and sources of inspiration. Unlike most of its competitors, this thought-provoking and inspiring resource offers a wealth of information from a personal perspective. It brings to light many issues most artists might never research independently, such as what types of people you might encounter at a workshop or the adverse effects of the various chemicals in art supplies. Recommended for all public libraries.-Jennifer Moldwin Gustafson, Detroit Inst. of Arts Lib.
