TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I found DITA Best Practices by Bellamy, Carey, and Schlotfeldt on IBM Press
to be quite good from a foundational understanding and philosophy
perspective. It does a good job with the "why" and early-planning "how,"
but does not go into specific tools, so that may be a weakness. https://www.informit.com/store/product.aspx?isbn=0132480522
