I think the following books are very useful:
The Mother of All Baby Books: The Ultimate Guide to Your Baby's First Year (U.S. edition) by Ann Douglas
Caring for Your Baby and Young Child, Revised Edition : Birth to Age 5
Infant Massage--Revised Edition : A Handbook for Loving Parents by Vimala Schneider Mcclure
also magazines like Parenting,American Baby are also very useful
Hope it helps
