These days most of the advice seems to be YouTube videos and websites.

Are there any real paper DIY manuals which are both good and current?

stuff that you can't beat a good youtube video ..

+1. The availability of so many viewpoints & assumption levels makes videos far better, though some like to waste 10 minutes presenting 1 minute of info. FWIW that 70s reader's digest one still pops up for sale on occasion, much of it very out of date but some is still good. IIRC it includes how to change a gramophone idler wheel & zero risk assessments.
