This month's "Fine Woodworking" has an article on shop lighting, written
by some recently retired expert in the field.  He has nice rules of
thumb on watts per square foot, ratio of spacing between the lights to
the ceiling height, etc.

The best discussion I have seen about shop lighting is in
the book "Setting up Your Motorcycle Workshop" by C.G. Masi.
Whitehorse press.   Masi is a part-time bike mechanic and full-time
lab guy for some high-tech company.  He's got a very extensive chapter
on lighting your shop... light colors, directions, amount, etc ad
naseum.
