Further reading

Regrettably, much of the material of the lecture (e.g., optimized normal form transformations and conflict-driven clause learning from Sect. 2 and most of Sect. 3, 5, and 6) is not contained in any current textbook. If you are interested in more information on these topics, you have to consult handbook or journal articles. Note that these are usually not written on a beginner's level.
