Unfortunately we didn't have enough space to cover Eclipse RCP, but there are plenty of good RCP books around. However a lot of the concepts and best-practices in the book can be used when building RCP applications and Eclipse plugins. The Maven Appendix covers building applications with the maven-bundle-plugin (we tend to use bnd for examples in the book).
I bought "Eclipse Plugins", which is extremely relevant to Eclipse RCP and a pretty good book.
Why I asked about Maven was I have expirence with ant, and always wanted to find the time to teach myself Maven, so there are Maven build examples inside of "OSGi in Action?"
