Many people just get their information from the internet these days but there are many great books on the market today.
If you are in need of some new reading material about your favorite critters here are some books I would recommend...

Guinea Pig: Collins Family Pet Guides

Piggy Potions - Natural Remedies for Guinea Pigs
By Peter Gurney

Diseases Of Domestic Guinea Pigs

The Really Usefull Guinea Pig Guide

The Guinea Pig Handbook

The Guinea Pig
No Author.
Please be aware this book refers to a breed called a Tessel, they are actually talking about a Texel.

I've got Peter Gurney's Proper Care, the Piglopedia and the Vanderlip Handbook. They each cover things slightly differently but I think all three are useful. Better indexes in all of them would help - even those which have them!

It is so hard to find ones purely about them, but I got a new Small Animal book today with a larger section about them then most I have seen have. I have Animal Planet - Guinea Pig
