I am not sure where it came from, but Microsoft has posted a free 196 page book titled "Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) in the Real World" on their download site. It looks pretty good.
They released "Readings in Service Orientation" a year ago. It was pretty good too.
It is available in XPS and PDF format.
