Continuous Integration in .NET
Continuous integration is a software engineering process designed to minimize "integration hell." It's a coordinated development approach that blends the best practices in software delivery. For .NET developers, especially, adopting these new approaches and the tools that support them can require rethinking the development process altogether.
Continuous Integration in .NET is a tutorial for developers and team leads that teaches readers how to re-imagine their development strategy by creating a consistent continuous integration process. This book shows how to build on the tools they already know - .NET Framework and Visual Studio - and to use powerful software like MSBuild, Subversion, TFS 2010, Team City, CruiseControl.NET, NUnit, and Selenium.
Purchase of the print book comes with an offer of a free PDF, ePub, and Kindle eBook from Manning. Also available is all code from the book.

Pretty nice, simple and short book about CI for .NET. Swallow it and act!
Building software development infrastructure is tricky. It consists of many aspects and each aspect is handled with a various set of tools. It's easy to get lost and waste a lot of time googling, reading blog posts, trying, understanding that it's not what you want, failing, googling again and again. This book gives quite comprehensive set of recipes and samples for each aspect of CI process which you could use as a starting point building your own environment. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who would like to benefit from having a full power CI, but doesn't know where to start from. It would be also helpful for those who already have basic CI set up, but want to get more from it.
What I dislike - sometimes in samples author talks about things that are quite obvious from my perspective. But this is a common problem of modern computer books.
