Norm, yes thats the book I mentioned in that message but now apparently
there is a new edition available. I posted this in my last message but I
guess you missed the link. Here it is again (thanks Bill Beaty).

Electrostatics: Exploring, Controlling, and Using Static
Electricity, 2nd ed. including the Dirod Manual
by A. D. Moore
http://www.electrostatic.com/moorebk.htm

The first edition of this book was fantastic. I used it while in college
and it really acted as a catalyst to shape my deeper understanding
later. The second edition is even better. lots of easy to do experiments
and full section on di-rods. click on the link to go straight to the web
page telling about it. I'm going to buy it. I think its the best
all-around book ever on electrostatics.
