Of course everything depends on the specific thai food you want to cook. You can also use something else or leave an ingredient out; Nobody's going to judge.
Try Googling Thai or oriental food shops in your district.

M$If you can get these ingredients - the book I learned to cook on was called "Keo's Thai Cuisine" It is still in print and easy enough to find at Borders Books or on-line. It was written by a Thai restaurant owner in Hawai;i. The recipes are delicious and easy to make, the instructions are clear and there is a photograph of each ingredient so you know what to buy. The only challenge, is - if you don't live in Hawai'i or near an Asian grocery store - getting some of the ingredients. I still make Thai food on occasion, but since moving to California I mostly have to leave out what I can't find and it doesn't taste authentic
