Recommended books about Asperger's Syndrome?

As I have previously posted, my DS5 is currently going through assessment for possible Aspergers-his full assessment date is 31st March, but the clinical psychologist told me yesterday that there are a lot of things in his behaviour which suggest he may well have AS. I would like to get some books, but looking at the National Autistic Society website, it is a bit bewildering as to which to get without spening an absolute fortune. Any recommendations?
