Jeni Tennison's books both take this approach, I believe, as does Zarella 
Rendon's. Note Jeni has two, an insanely brilliant one "On the Edge" (could 
have been called "doing the unthinkable with XSLT") and a more approachable 
"Beginning XSLT". Zarella's covers the language end to end, I think. Bob 
DuCharme's is also good. We are fortunate to have so many people around who 
can write such a book (by no means all the experts post frequently to this 
list).

Some have liked Doug Tidwell's book from O'Reilly, but that's threaded more 
on a particular scenario, an exposure to XSLT rather than a reference as such.

You will find Mike Kay's book to be the canonical reference, also well 
worth having if you can get it.

Not OT--
