Generally, if you go to www.google.com and type in your main question/idea/theme, you get pretty lucky most of the time. Would have been helpful to have more specific info, especially regarding the text book.

Just saw your additional info – so here’s what I found out:
The book is available at Barnes & Noble, Amazon has it as well, chances are you can get your library to get their hands on it for you.
Not sure about the article, but try any of these, maybe one is what you’re looking for:
