Ah, another Eddison fan.  I find "A Patchwork Garden" very inspirational.  You
might also want to try "A Starter Garden" by Cheryl Merser.  The Robinson in
interesting, and I have read it several times, but may be a little much for the
beginner.  His principles can be little difficult to translate into smaller
spaces.
You might want to try "The Art Of Perennial Gardening" by Patrick Lima.  He has
some excellent and inspirational photographs, talks about plant combinations
extensively, and for those of us in cold climates, he gardens in a very cold part
of zone 4.
