I have Ableton Live6 POWER! by John von Seggern, published by Thomson Course Technology.

Its pretty damn good and has a DJ section in there.

Might want to wait till Live 7 versions start coming out though

the tips and tricks thread at the top of this forum will be unmatched by any book. Read each tip and have a play. I remember someone showing me the Computer Music Ableton special, and it was like a surface-level skimming of this forum.

Also, check the "Ableton Live Set for Download" thread by rbmonosylabik, a similar thread by Tom Cosm - both fuly commented Ableton sets which should give you some insights, and are again probably in more detail than you would find in a mag or book.

I got a book from Amazon.com that is by Francis Preve and titled something like "The Remixers Bible." It has a lot of great stuff in it.
