The best XSLT design patterns book that I've read was Jeni Tennison's
"XSLT and XPath On The Edge", but that was written for XSLT 1.0 and XPath
1.0.

I haven't read "XSLT Cookbook, 2nd Edition" by Sal Mangano, but it covers
XSLT 2.0 and gets good reviews on Amazon, at least.  There's probably more
than a few on this list who could give you an opinion either way.

There's also Dave Pawson's XSL FAQ at http://dpawson.co.uk/xsl/index.html
