See http://virtualschool.edu/jwaa. This is a website and a Dr. Dobbs
Journal article, not a book, but it addresses some of your concerns
(if tangentially) by providing AUTOMATED support for both session
tracking cookies and URL rewriting.
That said, I don't understand your objection to cookies. Session
tracking is one thing cookies are designed to support. Most if not
all of the objectionable uses of cookies can be handled without
breaking session tracking via browser preferences. The really
disgusting ones can be stopped with external tools like
JunkBuster/Squid.
Perhaps we could help more if you'd explain exactly why you object so
to cookies.
