The best book I've seen that discusses this is Head First Servlets & JSP (ISBN 0-596-00540-7). Overall it's a pretty good book, but the section on CMS was especially concise and easy to understand... my experience, since I learned it myself and then had to teach a number of other people, is that CMS is a little... mmm, weird I guess... but then when you have that Eureka! moment, you feeel *really* stupid for not getting it quicker :)
