Practical Development Environments with open source tools
oreilly.com -- Online Catalog: Practical Development Environments, First Edition
Open Design, with best in class version controls, will accelerate your design efforts. It's nice to see a whole book from O'Reilly.
This book doesn't tell you how to write faster code, or how to write code with fewer memory leaks, or even how to debug code at all. What it does tell you is how to build your product in better ways, how to keep track of the code that you write, and how to track the bugs in your code. Plus some more things you'll wish you had known before starting a project.

Thanks for the comment.
I have a number of O'Reilly books on my shelf. I consider them one of the best publishers out there.
I think the depth of having a book styled book is required in some subjects. I'm glad to see that there is a whole book just about Design Environment's. I think a project 'hacks' book could have been written too, but I like the depth you get by focusing from start to finish.
Nice to see my book mentioned. I am curious what you mean by a "whole book"?
