The "What the Heck Is?" series of posts by Dan Sugalski was good:
http://www.sidhe.org/~dan/blog/archives/cat_what_the_heck...

In particular he has one about GC:

He was posting good overviews of CS topics so that people could work on Parrot (the proposed Perl VM).

But a more thorough review of GC technology on LWN would be appreciated!
