I have just tiled a kitchen for a customer, mainly because his tiler let him down and he wanted the job doing before Christmas...... Now I'll admit that I'm hardly the world's greatest tiler, but I actually found the job quite enjoyable and a bit of a change from the "day job" (joinery/furniture making/installation), and the customer was sufficiently pleased to ask me if I'd like to put him a heated floor in - and tile it (in a couple of months time) as part of ongoing work on the house. Now I'm interested in learning a bit more, especially as I also have my own bathroom to do in the next few months as well. Could anyone point me in the direction of a suitable up to date book or two one the subject, or an appropriate source of info on the web?

Most of the books are American so their way of doing things if different to ours, you could get in a lot of bother if you don't know what they mean when they talk about "Mud" but you should know that having worked there.
