QTR-Quadtone RIP

I am in the same boat as David.  I am fairly new using QuadtoneRip, 
and have less of an interest in the science and creating custom 
curves, with a large desire to make really good B&W prints.  A 
really good, clear, and simple book would be very helpful.  I just 
want to make good high quality prints and not deal with the 
technical stuff, or at least, as little as I can get away with.  
Thanks for any help and or suggestions.  Michael G.
