Google Analytics Guide

Can anyone recommend a good guide to using Google Analytics?

I'm starting to use Google Analytics seriously and like it a lot, but feel I'm not making as much use of it as I could.

The online help is very good, but there are always gaps in what I want to know.

One specific example is Goals vs Traffic Source:

GA shows me the % of visitors from each Source that perform my Goal, but not the NUMBER of Goals. I want to look at my Goals and ask "Which Traffic Sources are they coming from".

Not found a way to do that.

Thanks

Alex
