Big John and Holly Bergevin have written two great new articles at Position is Everything (P.I.E.).

Flowing and Positioning: Two Page Models - A detailed discussion of flowing and positioning.

Float: The Theory - The basics of standard floating.

There is also an older companion article worth reading - Towards A More Standards Compliant Internet Explorer - that explains "exactly why the IE float model is so very bad".
