Most of the books out there are very outdated. There's not much hope these days of finding an informative hard copy of something related to CCTV.

 

I think you're better off trying to find online publishers, blogs, review sites, additional forums, etc...

Can you help me to find something? In particular my focus in this moment is understand the system recording, so all the information about server, backup server, failover manage, storage (N+1, N+N), so everthing about the CCTV manage system.

I hope in your response

 

Alex

download some mfgs manuals Geovision has an 800 page manual that will give you a pretty good overall view of how they do things once you learn one or tow systems you will start to see the common features and requirements

This one is good, i read the previous edition (2010) though and not the 2014 edition.

 

http://www.amazon.com/Digital-Video-Surveillance-Security-Second/dp/0124200427/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1424313863&sr=8-2&keywords=cctv+book

 

I read this one too but now its kind of outdated, still good foundational stuff.

Books will give you a good background but for specific knowledge the forums are a good source as well as technical section from specific vendors' website.
