And, of course, there's always the MSDN Books Online published by Microsoft. The documentation for SQL Server is always helpful to use.

Gail Shaw (The "Gila Monster") has an awesome mini-series on the subject right here on SSC.

Kimberly Tripp also has a great video on the subject. Don't let the word "debate" throw you. This video has a huge amount of great information packed in just 36 minutes.

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
