I have it, and I can't recommend it.  Despite the name, it's a
reference, not a guide.  For an example of the kind of book I'm
looking for, see http://www.alltel.net/~kollar/utp/.  That's about
troff, not DocBook, but it's a well written book.  I don't think
anything similar is available for DocBook.
