Here are some: Baldi, Philip. (1983). An Introduction to the Indo-European Languages. Beekes, Robert S. P. (1995). Comparative Indo-European Linguistics. Mallory, J.P. (1989). In Search of the Indo-Europeans. [More archeology and anthropology.] Mallory, J.P. (2006). The Oxford Introduction to Proto-Indo-European and the Proto-Indo-European World. Some may be out of print and can be found used. Ceci n'est pas un seing.
