I found Hacker's Diet (http://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/) by John Walker (Autodesk founder) to be entertaining reading by itself, it also has some useful advice.
The Abs Diet (http://www.amazon.com/Abs-Diet-Six-Week-Flatten-Stomach/dp/1...) is written in a bit over-patronizing language for my taste, but has a lot of useful info about different nutrients, how to read food labels, how to structure meals to keep blood sugar level constant, etc. Exercises in the book are not bad too.
By combining these two approaches I was able to steadily loose weight and feel better for more than a year. Recent change it lifestyle changed that, I'm looking into reworking my routine to get back on track again.
