    Hi Shyam, I highly recommend the book _Mokume Gane, A Comprehensive
    Study_ by Steve Midgett. In addition to his own writing on the
    subject, Steve also includes contributions from other masters of the
    process. The book is loaded with remarkable photos... a worthy
    addition to any jeweler's library, even if he (or she) has no
    intention of actually making the stuff. 

    In my recollection there isn't a lot of specific information on
    techniques for developing specific patterns, but general guidelines
    and an encouragement to experiment. There are a lot of good,
    inspirational photos, though! 

    Oh yeah.... the book is ISBN 0-9651650-7-8.
