Paper in Harmony by Marc Kirschenbaum, 150 pages, 12 models, ISBN: 0-615-11281-1.
This book really has everything I like in Origami books: photos of the finished models, an Introduction dealing with the history and design of each model, Folding Hints for each model, a chapter on "Materials and Methods" (including wet folding and tissue foil preparation) and a page on paper sizes, featuring reduction and multiplying factors for all models that allow you to calculate paper sizes that result in similar heights for your finished models.
Oh yeah, very cool models, too;-) They're advanced, but do-able. Foil paper or wet folding work well with these models. The models all turn out pretty small compared to the starting square (or rectangle), so large sheets of paper are required to end up with models that have a decent size (the multiplying/reduction factors in the back of the book will help you with this).
All models except the pianist have a color change.
