Massive Mastering (run by John Scripp) provides a pretty good blog about Mastering concepts, including this FAQ which gives you a general idea about the mindset of what makes a good finished mix for the process. It's not super-detailed, but can help you get started thinking about what the process is really about (handy hint: it's mostly NOT about how 1 track sounds).
Finally, a mastering engineer that states the difference between mixing into a compressor and slapping one on at the end.

I was reading it thinking, not ANOTHER mastering engineer who is against mix bus compression, but then at the end he qualifies it by saying mixing into a compressor can actually be a good thing.
