If you are interested in theoretical questions related to implementation, rather than simply obtaining suitable pseudo-random numbers, you might want to look at Numerical Recipes in C : The Art of Scientific Computing by William H. Press, Saul A. Teukolsky, William T. Vetterling, Brian P. Flannery Hardcover - 994 pages 2nd edition (January 1993) Cambridge Univ Pr (Short); ISBN: 0521431085
