The book is an excellent resource, not just for its own content, but checking the references will lead you to articles that you can also use. Unfortunately, when getting references this way, they are not the most recent, but the book isn't that old, so you should some that are useful. When doing a talk and I find a great book like this, it is a much quicker starting route to other references than doing online searches.
