I found the following point very valuable in understanding how to use styles.
You can either think of styles as tools that change the appearance of various parts of a document. You apply Style H1 to make all the top level headers look the same. Alternately you can use styles to differentiate the parts of the document. For example a style for Titles, another style for body text, a third for author's names.
The advantage of defining styles in terms of what part of the document they apply to as opposed to what they look like is that once you think your way through your documents, define each part of them, and develop a style for it two things happen. Maintaining a consistent look is easy and converting documents to sgml, html, xml, etc that makes sense is a lot simpler too.
