Stan,
Both the Fluke Calibration: Philosophy in Practice and the Keithley: Low Level
Measurements Handbook have chapters about grounding and guarding. The Low Level
handbook is available from Keithley as a download:

For the 1978-1980 version of the Fluke book:

The Kindle and epub versions are not very good; get the 32 MB pdf file.
