You can trust Cycling Weekly.
This little book represents great value and is surprisingly detailed.
Its magazine-like format is full of useful extra titbits of information alongside the main text and the step-by-step photos are clear and very helpful.
There's plenty of recognition of various standards by manufacturers too, with instructions for each.
