There were a number of articles we consulted for this project; the full list is below, with the ones we found most useful in bold. The one at the very top is one I just added today.
Some of the articles not bolded were quite good, but rehashed information we already knew from our practice or other materials. Some of the bolded ones did a bit of rehash too, but presented their information in especially clear ways. How useful a particular article might be to you has a lot of dependence on how familiar you already are with the particular tactic or strategy they are talking about.
