Just in case Robert is too modest, I'll suggest the best:
Oracle9i RMAN Backup and Recovery
by Robert Freeman and Matthew Hart
The best, the most extensive. Covers the most popular MMLs.
There are only 2 others that I am aware of:
Oracle RMAN Pocket Reference
by Darl Kuhn & Scott Schulze
Keep this small volume at your elbow, only $13 U.S.
Oracle 101 Backup & Recovery
by Kenny Smith & Stephan Haisley
About half this is RMAN. VERY basic for those of us that need to start
really slowly (like me). Has step by step by step tutorials.

Hi Robert,
Can you suggest a good RMAN book to start out. We're
also in the process of looking at RMAN to replace
in-house scripts.
TIA
