John, Besides RFC1918 you can read RFC1631 - The IP Network Address Translator (NAT). K. Egevang & P. Francis. May 1994. (Format: TXT=22714 bytes) (Status: INFORMATIONAL). I am not aware of a pro/cons white paper yet. However, VPN (example: IPSEC) technologies are costly and kludgey working with NAT. If IP headers are encrypted then a tunnel would have to begin and end any where NAT is used.
