Hi Urbano,

The new Tabular Modeling in SSAS book by Marco Russo and Alberto Ferrari will likely be considered a primary authority on this topic but it's not yet released. You could also get their book 'The Definitive Guide to DAX' and, for just getting started on Tabular modeling, much of their SSAS 2012 Tabular book is still very much relevant.

All three of these books and Rob Collie's Power Pivot and Power BI book are listed at the following BI Book reference page:

You might also use the following sites:

Good luck!
