There are two that I would recommend to start with. Printed Circuit Board Design Techniques for EMC Compliance Mark I. Montrose IEEE Press ISBN 0-7803-1131-0 IEEE Order Number PC5595 Noise Reduction Techniques in Electronic Systems Henry W. Ott John Wiley and Sons ISBN 0-471-85068-3 The first book is a very good reference on PCB design. It covers most aspects of design for EMC compliance including layer stack-up, grounding, decoupling, clock circuits and ESD. The second book concentrates more on system design. It has some information on circuit board layout, but it does not concentrate on the subject. It does give a good description of emissions and susceptibility issues. If you are looking to gain a good understanding of the basics of electrical noise, this is the book to start with.
