social anxiety books?

Does anyone know of any good books on social anxiety? I haven't found anything helpful yet. I am 29 and have been strugging with this for years. I dont' have many friends because of it and I need help! Have been through counseling and taken meds and I don't want to go that route again. I'm not depressed and everything else in my life is balanced except this.
Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks

I was curious to see what would come up at Amazon and found the following -- many of which look excellent!

I've actually searched on Amazon as well and have seen alot of those books, just hoping someone else could say whether they helped or not. I've actually bought a couple of books on Amazon on the subject without much luck!
