The UK's Telegraph profiles Chip Kidd, who is above and beyond most all other book cover designers. If you're not familiar with the name, fear not, you've seen his covers. One cover, in particular. He did the iconic Jurassic Park jacket. He's done all sorts of other authors' jackets as well, including Oliver Sacks, James Ellroy, Cormac McCarthy, and Haruki Murakami (Kidd's cover is above). He's a wonder, Kidd is.
His website is here and the book you should definitely look through, if you're at all interested in graphic design and/or books in general, is this one.
