Hi Bill,
I don't have information on those books, but if you have an iPhone you might try downloading the "Carats" app. It has several measurement converters and will also do gemstone weight estimates. Enter the length, width, depth, select from a list of materials and cut styles, and you'll get your estimate. I've found it to be fairly accurate for classic cut styles; less so for new designs.
