I'm reading Ray Jardine's "Beyond Backpacking". It is out of print, but I checked it out of the library. It is a classic lightweight backpacking reference. He's the guy that inspired the founders of Golite to create their company.
I like this comparison:
Standard Backpacking Approach: It is better to have a piece of gear and not need it, than to need it and not have it.
Jardine Approach: If I need it and don't have it, then I don't need it.
