Hi! Try the "French Professional Pastry Series" (4 volumes) available from
Amazon.com or if by any chance out of print, try abebooks.com. It's an
excellent resource of techniques (and pictures) and you can REALLY learn
from them. I own lots of books these are perhaps the most valuable! They are
a bit pricey though, but believe me worth every cent. Also try "Baking" by
Wayne Gisslen, or the "Professional Pastry Chef" and "The Advanced
Professional Pastry Chef" both by Bo Friberg. Hope that helps!
