There are some great books.
'Buddhist Teaching and Practice' by R Thompson is buddhism in very basic terms, which I found really helpful. ISBN 0-7131-7451-x
Also try 'Light on Enlightenment' by Christopher Titmus, a brilliant bookfor straightforward info on Buddhism.
ISBN 0-7126-7122-6

Buddhism is quite a structured religion. Start with the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path, then look into meditation and stuff.
