which book to get? (GI)

i checked online for books about the "GI diet" and there are so many to choose from, i'm confused... i'm looking for a book that has indepth info on the issues related to diabetes and the GI diet, but also for a list or index of the food with their specific amounts of carbs/sugar in them...

anybody know a good book or maybe even 2 books i could look into? i'm also thinking of buying the "track3 electronic diabetes carb counter" from coheso... it has the following stuff:
