You've asked for some reference material. The free sample excerpt of my recently published _XSLT 1.0 Pocket Reference_ is Chapter 3, called "How XSLT Works":

If you don't mind, I'd be curious to hear whether this was helpful for you. I hope it is!

This is actually a passion of mine. I'm beginning a project on software visualization for XSLT. It will be somewhat like a debugger, but the emphasis will be on *learning* XSLT rather than debugging it. Unfortunately, I don't have anything to show you yet, other than what I've written, but I'll be sure to post a link to the list when I have something working.
