"RF Circuit Design" by Chris Bowick is a useful (easy) reference. It is paperback and not too expensive.

There have to be 100's of books on the subject and numerous software packages as well.

The best book is definitely one from the original author. It is Phillip H. Smith. Electronic Applications of the Smith Chart.

It was first publish by McGraw-Hill in 1969. Then Noble Publishing republish it in 1995 and 2000. I believe this book is widely available.

And any good tip where to find this book ( in electronic form)?

To dkace,

If you asked me, I have only hard copy. It will be nice to have e-book too, but I do not know where can I find it.

For learning the Smith Chart, a collection of good references are found here:
