Unfortunately, most of the Taunton "Ideas" books I've thumbed through are complete rubbish. They've been a real letdown from Taunton's previously fine offerings.
Check out the online sample pages at Amazon to get an idea before purchase.

I thimply adooore the red (fake cherry?) and green stained wood cabinets on page 6, don't you?

The biggest disappointment I had from Taunton was the "Complete ILLUSTRATED Guide to Routers". It had so many photos (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, ...) with sentence by sentence references that it was frustrating to read. I will simply avoid anything in that series in the future. I don't blame the author (Lonnie Bird), as I've read books of his that I really liked.
