I don't know about you all but when I read a book like this, I want to know how to make counterfeit documents. This book will not help you there. I recommend Max Forge's book (also available here on Amazon). It's about making Fake IDs but the techniques described can easily be applied to manufacturing other counterfeit documents.

Forging for Dummies March 23, 2004
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
In the introduction, John Q. says a good quality forgery is almost never detected by people who commonly examine identification documents. The four characteristics that make for a good quality forgery are: that the forged document bears a close resemblance to the real document; that all the numbers appearing on a real document appear on the forgery; that all seals, stamps and signatures on the real document are also on the forgery and that the paper used for the fogery is identical to the paper used for the real document. Then he tells you how. It may not always be high tech, but there is definitely an artistry to it. This is interesting reading. Kind of gets you wondering just what makes forgers tick. He gives you the names of companies that provide products one could use for such an endeavor, but warns you away from companies that actually make forged documents. Almost like anyone doing this would be better off doing it themselves. He covers some cross referencing, and tells you some things you need to look out for. Really interesting information. This is good reading. I tend to be one of those people who probably has more curiosity than is good for her, but just because I like reading about this stuff, doesn't mean I'm going to be a forger. Check out this publisher. Lots of strange books. Loompanics site or 8003802230
