Throughout the book there are referenced books, papers and lectures which may expand on a particular topic or area. Whilst a library is usually the most effective solution, where possible links below will take you to Amazon, who in our experience, offer the widest selection of technical books at a reasonable price.

CiteSeer is a useful resource for locating more information on a particular paper (specifically where it has been referenced), but you may also find Google of significant help in trying to locate online versions.
