Finger Tapping is pretty much what you would expect, you just tap the string with your finger. No pick is involved. Just play around with it for a bit and you'll get the hang of it, a good song to try to play would be the tapped part at the beginning of the Crazy Train solo.

It's not too dreadfully hard, the worst part is getting the coordination down, tapping in a pattern instead of a random sequence.

Why don't you reach down in my pocket and see what it is
Then grab onto it, it's just for you
Give a little squeeze and say, "How do you do?"

Finger tapping isn't hard, it just seems that way. I would practice on Eddie's Eruption solo, it's really easy.
