What book to find right grinding wheels for different metals?

I have used the Machinist's Handbook as my Bible since I started machining. However, it is somewhat weak in the area of grinding wheels and metal matches. You can call several companies and each one will have a different suggestion! Does anyone have any suggestions for a book that would help with that?

The bible is Machinery's Handbook , not the Machinist's Handbook.
