Does anyone have any particular recommendations with regard to the above?
I am fairly clued up on basic dimension design but would like to delve deeper and start utilising more of the functionality available in AS. I'm looking for links, articles, books. Anything really. I recently attended a course where the instructor basically poo-poo'd just about every Analysis Services text book available...
I'm not looking for something that tells me how to use the wizards.
I'm not looking for Books Online (I know where it is!)
Am I asking too much?!
Ta.

You could have a look to the Ralph Kimball books or articles if you need a more conceptual approch of dimensions or multidimensionnal modelisation. It's not perhaps the perfect theory but it will fit with the SSAS implementation.
Many books ands articles are available:
The Microsoft Data Warehouse Toolkit: With SQL Server 2005 and the Microsoft Business Intelligence Toolset
Kimball University: The 10 Essential Rules of Dimensional Modeling
Judge Your BI Tool through Your Dimensions
Fact Tables and Dimension Tables
and so on ...
