My source for the ON2 field is the book:
Mathematical Games by John Hornton Conway. I have not the publiser reference 
at hand. That book is at least 30 year old, so it must be out of print. You 
may try to find it in a public library... ON2 is the very basis of the 
mathematical theory of Moonshine (a serious subject!) so it may be expained 
in some other books on the Moonshine, surreal numbers and other Conway 
favorite subjects. You may try Amazon search engine with the input J. H. 
Conway.
