I also picked up an unbelievably useful book on grids. Rotovision, 2008.
Grids: Creative Solutions for Graphic Designers, Rotovision. It demonstrates how the grid can be useful to the graphic designer in pretty much any situation they can encounter, as well as how it does not mean you work is restricted by using one.
It provides examples of these situations too, from the minimalist typographic approach...
To the use of complex layers that obscure and reveal select pieces of text, imagery and colour.
This book also came with a DVD containing a wide selection of grids to use with InDesign. Some thing I'm sure will help to inspire me to come up with my own grids for future work.
