Try the following

    - Web Application Development With AngularJS http://www.packtpub.com/angularjs-web-application-development/book

Have you read either of them? Don't recommend books you haven't read. I know for a fact that the O'Reilly book is crap.

I am currently reading "Web Application Development With Angular". Its a well written book geared towards who already know angular basics. That's why I suggested O'Reilly book as its introductory which explains angular core concepts.

Another book worth looking at is: Recipes with Angular.js which is covered under Leanpub Unconditional Return Guarantee. so if you don't like the book. 45 days of purchase you can get a 100% refund.

so you can try the above, if you don't like the other two

Sadly I agree that the O'Reilly book is of poor quality. Bad editing, sloppy writing style, terrible organization of the chapters. Whatever happened to O'Reilly's standards?

The Mastering Web Application Development book is pretty good I felt.
