I would like a recommendation for a book on Eclipse's Rich Client Platform (RCP)

I have read through several reviews on Amazon and some books seem outdated. I am currently using MyEclipse 6.5 which is using Eclipse 3.3. I'm interested in hearing from people that have experience learning RCP and what reference material they used to get started.

java eclipse rcp myeclipse

Although I don't have personal experience, a few friends of mine did Eclipse RCP development, and they used the book "Eclipse Rich Client Platform: Designing, Coding, and Packaging Java(TM) Applications". They seemed to like it a lot, and I looked it at myself, and it seemed useful. If I was going to do RCP development on Eclipse, I would probably get this book.

To clarify - this book is geared toward Eclipse 3.1, and since I haven't done any RCP development of my own, I'm not sure how much things have changed.
