    Textbooks

    So, I'm looking to expand my knowledge a bit, and I wanted to ask for some recommendations:
    When it comes to frames, adjustments, repairs, etc. what is the best book on the subject? I've read Systems (2nd Edition) which provides excellent fundamentals, but I was hoping to find something more in depth about frame materials, the characteristics of different frame materials, how to adjust and repair them, etc. Thanks!!

    The only book that provides more detail about frames, frame adjustments, and frame materials than "System for Ophthalmic Dispensing" is Spectacle Frames and Their Dispensing, although it is a difficult book to track down nowadays.
