Hi,
I can also vouch for Pavel Tsatouline. I bought this book on stretching, and it really is a great book. I tried some isometric stretching, and it worked very well for me. I always had good flexibility on most movements (due to previous wushu training), except with the split. I practiced one isometric exercise for some time, and I was amazed with the results. It feeled like I was tricking my body.
What really amazed me with the book was learning that stretching is more related with the nervous system (ie, relaxing) than with the muscles.
