WCF Book Recommendation

#1

I've got a system I need to build that I was going to implement with Web
Services. However, this system needs fairly high throughput and after
reading Microsoft's performance comparison it looks like WCF is the best
way to go. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb310550.aspx

My question is, what books do you recommend for getting up to speed the
quickest? I prefer books that cover the conceptual stuff and then drives it
home with actual examples.

Thanks

Thanks. This also served to give me a good excuse to re-sign up for
