I did a pre-publication review for "Software Testing" by Ron Patton and 
published by Sams.  The editing was really top-notch, and that's not 
something I see very often.

I didn't like the fact he referenced very little of the existing 
literature, though - I don't recall whether Sams insisted on this or 
not, since it targets a beginning audience.  There were several 
references to other books from Sams that were marginally relevant, 
though there's a vast wealth of highly relevant literature from other 
publishers.
