Book wise think all of these are pretty good.
"Lessons Learned in Software Testing: A Context Driven Approach"
by Cem Kaner, James Bach and Brett Pettichord
(more aimed at folk with "tester" in their job title - but an
interesting read)
"Testing Extreme Programming" by Lisa Crispin and Tip House.
(obviously slanted towards XP - but that's a good thing :-)
"Test Driven Development" by Kent Beck
(everybody should read this)
"Test Driven Development: A Practical Guide" by Dave Astels
(some people dislike this book - I quite like it myself, but prefer the
Beck)
"FIT for Developing Software: Framework for Integrated Tests" by Robert
C. Martin
(if you want to know more about FIT testing)
If you're dealing with legacy code, or code that's not been developed
test first, I'd also thoroughly recommend "Working Effectively With
Legacy Code" by Michael Feathers.
