There's quite a good book regarding font management under Mac OS X, Leopard, 
although most of what is in the book is applicable to some prior versions of 
OS X.

The book, "Take Control of Fonts in Leopard" is written by Sharon Zardetto 
and is available from TidBits <http://db.tidbits.com/> either as a .pdf or in 
hard copy.

Font Book, the built-in font manager in OS X does permit duplicates of a 
given font to be installed but automatically chooses one of them to be the 
active version. Which is the active version can be determined by the user.
