Josh:

Try the "A List Apart" which not only is an example in itself of 
terrific elegant and restrained typography that caters for both screen 
and print, but it full of top-notch articles which you will find cited 
over and over or linked to from other sites.  See 
.

The CSS-D list wiki [1] is always a good place to start.

You'll  find an extensive  list of books  [2] on CSS there.

Of the various books I bought, the one that's lasted and I still use  
for ref is
CSS, The Missing Manual
David Sawyer McFarland

If, like me, you're designing for print some of the time and forget  
your css after a few days, it's got a handy index of styles at the back.
