 If you're looking for a good Thai cookbook, I'd recommended Thai Cooking / A'Harn Thai by David Thompson. It has a fantastic section on the various ingredients you need and techniques like cracking coconut cream mentioned above. The recipes run the gamut from recognisable to ridiculously authentic, but I consider it like Ruhlman for Thai food.

I had never heard of cracking the cream, but I'll try it next time.

My paste doesn't have peanuts in it like I thought it would. How should I integrate peanuts into the curry? Toss some into the blender and mix them in?

Get some peanuts, dry roast them in your frypan then crush them and add to the paste while you're frying it in the coconut cream.

Edit - assuming you have access to fresh peanuts, if not, then probably go with the peanut butter suggestion.
