Not a book, but namenewbie.com would be a good start.
I also like igoldrush.com, it's outdated now but interesting from a historical perspective

No eBooks - it's mostly old news. Read this forum and many others. If you're looking for current information, forums and blogs are the best place to go.

This forum can be used as your main book. I've seen videos on youtube, but most of them are a market scheme that wants you to buy their product.

"The Domain Game” by David Kesmodel
http://www2.xlibris.com/bookstore/bookdisplay.asp?bookid=47650\


Description

Almost everyone has heard a tale of someone getting rich by selling an Internet domain name for a staggering price. But few understand the secretive world of domain investing, a game that a growing number of people are playing around the globe. The Domain Game chronicles the exploits of leading domain investors and explains how this mysterious market works. Learn how an Oklahoma watermelon farmer wound up owning some of the world’s most valuable Web addresses, from recipes.com to chairs.com, and how a college dropout became a multimillionaire by scooping up domains that others abandoned amid the dot-com bust. Find out how the rise of Google and Yahoo has helped boost the fortunes of domain investors. And explore the shenanigans of investors who snag names associated with corporate trademarks. Finally, read how you can jump into this exciting market with a relatively small initial investment. It’s a market with high risk, but huge potential reward.
