Books

Digital Restoration From Start to Finish: How to repair old and damaged photographs (2007)
This book is the bible for photo restoration. While author Ctein is an eccentric character (yes he has only one name, pronounced kuh-tine), this book explains restoration methods in great detail. 

Adobe Photoshop Restoration & Retouching (3rd Edition) (2007)
Katrin Eismann's book is also very good, lots of examples and easier to read than Ctein's book.

Photoshop CS3 Restoration and Retouching Bible  
Mark Fitzgerald's book is more recent than Ctein or Eismann and also very good.

Photo Retouching & Restoration for Dummies
Like all Dummies books, this one is an easy read for beginners but it was published in 2002 so is somewhat outdated (the procedures use Photoshop Elements 1 and 2 while the current version is 7).
