        I would recommend:

        Photoshop Restoration & Retouching
        by Katrin Eismann

        Lots of great info in there about retouching

          Retouching pics is something I've been interested in ever since I started doing graphics. I learned all I know basically from trial and error, but I can tell you what I use most for doing this.

          blur and smudge tool
          clone tool
          adjust hue and saturation
          adjust brightness and contrast
          unsharp mask
          extract and liquify

          I tend to spend a lot of time on touching up pics when I use them for graphics, I think it really adds a nice finishing touch to the overall look of the design
