From: Alfred H Raschdorf Jr I've gotten a lot of mileage out of Robert A. Malloy's
"Plastic Part Design for Injection Molding, An
Introduction", published by Hanser.
It's got Mold Filling, Gating, Weld Lines, Warpage,
Ejection, Rapid Prototyping, Press Fits, Snap Fits,
Ultrasonic Welding and much much more. I laughed, I cried.
For the economical minded or the mind that wants the
knowledge pronto, GE plastics puts out a decent design
guide for injection molding (it is not as thorough, but a
good starter):
