Question Any good books on this engine?

I'm seriously considering buying a 3rd gen RX-7 in the near future, but I've got one problem. First, I don't really know much about engines period. I know a little, but not much. Second, I know absolutely nothing about a rotary engine. Are there any good books out that are good to learn about it? I don't want to buy a car and then funk it up cause I don't know much about it.

Thanks
