What's the best travel guidebook for Paris, France 2008?

What's the best will depend on your personal taste.

I've always been fond of the Lonely Planet guide book but then its been a very long time since I've actually used a generalist guide book to Paris.

These days, I still spend a lot of time before each trip to Paris hitting the internet and finguring out what, if anything, there is that is new or that I've managed to miss in the past. Even after 30+ years of frequent visits there is always something I turn up. I also give a lot of thought to where I'd like to eat as new restaurants are always appearring and even after all this time there are well established places I haven't tried.

I'm rather methodical and have my own database of restaurants, bars, clubs that I'm constantly updating. I choose from this and print it out to take along.

In effect I make my own guidebook before I leave.

It may seem rather obsessive compulsive to do all this work myself (or maybe just plain crazy) but preparing for my trips abroad has become a part of the pleasure of travel. You might consider doing the same.

Hi, I think the best guidebook is "Michelin Vert", wellmade to foreigners people, you find in English, Spanish, etc, the best certainly, Welcome in Paris.

All great answers! But, one guidebook that I wouldn't be caught dead without in the Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay (or any of the great museums in Europe) is "Mona Winks" by Rick Steves! It's an essential and guides you to the great art and quickly through the bad stuff (I know, I know, it's a matter of taste, BUUUUUT...) with great information and humor.
