That's a good idea I believe - I could add a hand-picked book section, where each book would be an item like the current screencast.. Thanks!
Don't get too excited about that idea, if Stackoverflow's experience is anything to rely on:

However, your experiences might be a bit difference since people going to watch screencasts are more likely to be looking for a focused instruction than people going to Stackoverflow, so maybe these people would buy books. It's worth a try, but I wouldn't invest a lot of effort in it.

They also mention the Adsense problem on technical sites that you refer to elsewhere in this post.
