There is a desperate need for a "Best Practice" book.
There is one already from Brett Porter and Maria Odea Ching:
https://www.packtpub.com/apache-maven-2-effective-implementations/book

I'd say it's a fairly good book.

Is it a How-to book or a "Best Practice" book.
The description on the link seems to indicate that it is a "How-To" but it does mention that it teaches best practices. It says that it follows a single application through an entire cycle. Does it discuss alternative approaches and explain how the "best" approach needs to be adapted to handle different development situations (team size, project size, IDE, technology stack, etc).

I am looking for a Best Practice book that does not spend a lot of time explaining how to install software or teaching concepts that are covered in the documentation. For example, it would discuss Dependency Management from the 30,000 foot level. In that section, it would talk about how to sensibly organize your libraries so that Maven can build and test modules using standard plug-ins in a standard lifecycle. More of a project manager's book than a programmers book. The reader should be able to write the corporate software development handbook after reading this.
