Just wandering through and thought I would suggest the Amy's Book of Knots IIRC. When I picked up a copy, it ran me around $70. Has tons of knots in it. But in regards to messing with paracord, I've found the internet to be a good source if you are looking for lanyard tying. Stormdrane (sp?) has a blog that I believe is filled with quite a few examples and some tutorials as well.

Here are two that I have been checking out the past couple of days and using to tie a cobra stitch. Took a few tries to get the right tension down:

Hope this helps.

There's even a halfway decent iPhone app that isn't very expensive.
