I was checking my local Barnes and Noble to see if I can get it now, and these also popped up - any good - or should I just stick with that book you listed?
An Intro To Olympic Style Weightlifting
Essentials of Weightlifting and Strength Training, 2nd Ed.
No, Barnes and Noble doesn't have it, so I'm going to have to order it from that site.

"The reality is that neither strength nor technique will adequately compensate for a considerable lack of the other.....Excellent technique and poor strength will produce a mediocre athlete; excellent strength and poor technique will produce a mediocre athlete. Neither can be neglected for the sake of developing the other, and the two must be developed in concert - " Greg Everett, Olympic Weightlifting

Oh look, Switzerland posted.
Actually, I agree with you. In this case, I think the diagraming was enough to really drive the point home. With some lifters it can be necessary, with some incredibly helpful, and with others completely useless (I know some guys that I coached who are confused by any diagrams not generated by an etech-a-sketch).
