eXtreme Series

eXtreme Programming Applied: Playing to Win; Ken Auer, Roy Miller; Addison-Wesley Professional 2001; ISBN 0201616408

This books explains eXtreme Programming values and practices shortly and then provides a score of practical guidelines for introducing these practices into an organizations. It outlines possible barriers to introduction of XP and ways to overcome them. It can be useful for "selling" XP to different parties involved: the customers, the managemnt and the developers. XP can benefit them all, provided that they agree to play together to win. If convincing them to do that is your job, you'll appreciate this book.

Aspect Oriented Programming

AspectJ in Action - Practical Aspect Oriented Programming; Ramnivas Laddad; Manning 2003; ISBN 1930110936

I heartily recommend that book. It provides a good introductory material about AOP and AspectJ language, introduces several AOP specific design patterns, provides concrete examples of AOP applications ranging from execution tracing through caching/pooling to authentication/authorization and transaction control. It also gives information about possible pitfalls and problems and tips on introducing AOP into an organization and it's existing projects.
