hi

i think we deal with timing in 2 a littlebit different aspects :
-on-board interface and interconnect timing. taking every chip as a black 
box. specifying PCB layout length and matching constraints, validating the 
designs.
-on chip logic and interconnect timing, and IO timing seen from the chip. 
Mostly for VLSI/ASIC/FPGA-based on-chip logic design, but also to understand 
board-level timing too.

if you think about it, they are the same thing, but at a littlebit different 
starting points.

Greg Edlunds book is trying to talk about the first one, but I think lots of 
things are missing from that. so, i would suggest to check also the jedec 
79B, 79C, 21C standards, and search for appnotes, from Texas instruments, 
Altera, Micron, Cadence. But for start, Gregs book is quiet good.
About the second one, i would suggest this one: (I just started reading it 
few days ago. its a brand new book)
