Answer 1

I think NoSQL is still too recent a concept for "dead tree" publishing to have caught up. The best place to find out about NoSQL databases is the NoSQL website. Check it out.

If you're interested in specific databases, O'Reilly is as close to the curve as anybody, with books on Couch DB and Hadoop out now, and MongoDB on the way. In fact several publishers books on MongoDB in their pipelines.

Answer 2

While not a book this 117 page article provides a good basis into the non-relational as opposed to the relational databases.

If you want a more technical overview you might want to check out the individual technologies that usually make up these type of applications.
