I'd recommend "The Elements of Statistical Learning" by Hastie, Tibshirani,
and Friedman. There's a lot of good information on clustering, as well as a
wealth of info on many other apsects of classification, machine learning,
etc.

I can be downoaded, free of charge, in PDF format, from:
http://www-stat.stanford.edu/~tibs/ElemStatLearn/
