The problem is, it is quite easy to get a contract for book writing these 
days.  Furthermore, many publishers (not picking on any one in particular) 
are bring books to market before a proper editing (technical/copy/etc) 
process has been completed.  Hence, I highly recommend you buy books that 
are either highly recommended, or written by authors who are either 
authoritative on the subject (ie participated in the spec development) or 
those that have a reputation for writing quality materials.  There is 
unfortunately a fair amount of not very top notch books out there.
