Good and up-to-date book on DB2

Hello All,

I am planning to buy a book on DB2. I searched Google and found lot of
praise for "DB2 developers guide" by Craig Mullins.

But when I check out the book in a book store I found 3rd edition of
the book which talks about latest features of DB2 UDB 5. But the
current version is 8.

The book looked very comprehensive but I am afraid that I may miss out
of the latest features of DB2 v8.

My expectation is the following

* Know DB2 internals (specially clustering, high availability)
* know about all the latest features so that I can design better
solutions
* writing high performance applications. (by taking advantage of new
features)
* Administration and maintenance

Thanks for your help.

regards,
Abhishek.
