The "current" version of Gimp is 2.8. 2.9 is "experimental". When it's good enough for general use it will be called 2.10. So you won't find books about 2.9.
That looks awfully like work-in-progress to me. edit: no not work in progress, out-of-date, Gimp 2.2-ish
edit: I would steer clear of any published Gimp books. None are up-to-date. Some are truly terrible.
There is an up-to-date PDF (English), same as the online help but searchable and with index here:
http://gimp.linux.it/www/meta/gimp-en.pdf 30 MB 900 pages. Print out the pages you need.
Who knows when Gimp 2.9.x will be finalised and ready to become Gimp 2.10 It will be ready when it is ready. I have a linux version, which is very usable but it updates sometimes several times a week, as code is changed, bugs fixed, new bugs created.
There are windows versions. These do not up-date as much, or at all.
You could try this one, quite recent & portable so it does not interfere with your Gimp 2.8
