interest are published in IEEE Software and other periodicals. I am in the  
commercial application area, not academics. Most aritcles are published by  
academics, and while they are very interesting, I cannot apply the techniques  
they describe on my budget and time-table. IEEE is trying to get more  
publications from people in industry. So, if you get some good feedback, please  
post a summary.

I have this Guide. It covers a broad range of tools. It is essentially a  
catalog, not a book to read with the intention of learning more about testing  
techniques etc.
