I don't have a recommendation on a book but some very good websites with
very smart and knowledgeable people are the following -

http://dienekes.blogspot.com/
http://dna-forums.org/
http://www.eupedia.com/europe/origins_haplogroups_europe.shtml
http://www.eupedia.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?201-Genetics-amp-Anthropo…

Every year there are changes and additions to the the haplogroups. The
current haplogroups and subclades can be seen at
http://www.isogg.org/tree/index.html

The books you mentioned will have outdated info, and maybe even biased, so
keep that in mind when reading them. There are currently many studies that
will bring to light a lot more info, changes, and additions. The forums from
the above websites include many good arguments that should be read to
understand how many details aren't fully agreed upon yet.

Wikipedia has been updated with these changes and include links to the
source info and studies so it will have a lot of good material but the
previous mentioned websites should be kept in mind, especially when there
are critiques of the studies like the ones presented by Dienekes.
