Great little book to get you up to speed quickly on MongoDB. No religion about it, just here it is, make your own mind up. Plus it has unicorns fighting vampires !

Nice web book! I thought the coverage of map reduce was especially good. I also like the more complete book "MongoDB, The Definitve Guide" but this free book should probably serve the needs of most people.
