Hi Anonymous,
Becoming familiar with the disorder is an excellent way for all of you to better cope. I cannot offer a personal recommendation but here is some information that I found for you.

You can review this book on Google books before making a purchase.
Amazon.com offers a wide selection of books on this disorder.
