Try looking on amazon & look for books by scott kelby

http://www.kelbytraining.com/books/index.html

Photoshop CS4 Down & Dirty Tricks - this book is really good for quick tips & gives great ideas on what to do with an image

i suggest that you look at his site & read what each book does i have several of his books dating back over many years & they are always helpful although some may be too advanced.

also look for monthly magazines on ps such as photoshop creative

You can buy a book but you might want to try looking in your local library first. Even books on prior versions of Photoshop will help you learn.
