Does anyone know of a good reference for using principal components as a
subset selection method in regression, not so much to reduce
collinearity, but rather to reduce the number of variables?

There are intriguing hints in several books (e.g. Harrell Regression
modelling strategies;  Miller Subset selection in regression, but I was
wondering if anyone knew of a good paper or two (or a good book) on
using this method.

TIA
