When it comes to Core Animation and UIView animations, you might want to look at Marcus Zarra and Matt Long's new book Core Animation: Simplified Animation Techniques for Mac and iPhone Development. It provides a very thorough walkthrough of Core Animation, from the high level UIView animations to more complex animations involving CALayers and CAAnimations. Bill Dudney also has an excellent Core Animation book.

As far as official documentation, the Core Animation Programming Guide is also well-written.

There are many questions here on Core Animation, tagged with core-animation.

Matt Gallagher has an interesting series of articles entitled "An Asteroids-style game in Core Animation".

Finally, I teach a course on iPhone development, in which I devoted a class to Core Animation and the neat things you can do in it. The course notes are available for download (VoodooPad format), and have quite a bit of detail in them, in addition to links to other resources and sample applications.
