An excellent article over at Digital Web Magazine:
The Principles of Design by Joshua David McClurg-Genevese. This was published back in June 2005 but was pointed out to me by Chris Gibbins

I was inspired to put together this presentation on Web Standards after reading Jeffrey Zeldman’s ‘Designing with Web Standards’, New Riders, 2003. This book needs to be on all web designers shelves, alongside Jeffrey Veen’s marvellous ‘The Art and Science of Web Design’, New Riders, 2001.
