Answer 2

Some books on scales and arpeggios might be good to start with; that will allow you to learn the correct fingering for playing the piano (much like you learn to type with the correct fingers). After that, there are a bunch of books under the name of "Alfred's Piano for... " (beginners, adults, whatever) that are very good.

Good luck!

Answer 3

well i'm assuming that you are a teenager or adult. I always use the Faber Adult Piano Adventures. It comes in a nice spiral bound book complete with repertoire, theory and technique. Everyone I've used it with seem to like it.
