I know there are some books out there, but I am not familiar with them hence I have no recommendations.

I can definitely recommend http://cognospaul.com/ (http://cognospaul.com/).

I would suggest to install Cognos on your laptop and read the user's guide which also comes with good examples.

Oh yes, excellent point about the user guides. They are actually pretty good.

And get the sample data installed, if possible. Then you can play with the examples in the user guides.

Thanks, cognostechie.
