It covers many basic and beginner models and introduces some solid intermediate ones as well. One of the best thing s about it is how clearly the diagrams explain the step-by-step instructions. She also suggests creative uses for the models once you've learned them. It was first published in 1986 and is available on Amazon (and probably elsewhere). When I was a beginner years ago - this was the first book I found that I could really understand. Once folding most of the models in it I had a good understanding of many techniques, and was then able to tackle many of the books that I found interesting but not as clearly laid out.
