my advice would be to ease him into it. two years ago when my goldfish was 16, he wouldnt even think of touching a reefer let alone shrooms, what with all the people going insane and jumping out of windows and whatnot, hed have to be insane to even think about it. but he saw how his friends smoked and they hadnt murdered their parents on a crazy high yet so he tried it, the rest was history. try to ease him into using smaller mind enhancers, and he will most likely come around. though every fish is different.

As for literature, I suggest looking up articles discussing the John Hopkins mushroom studies like this one.
I also agree with what MOTH posted earlier, and I also suggest you talk with him about what your trips are like so he can make his own decision. Show him the sunny side of drugs!

My suggestion would to tell him all the good things you can learn from psychedelics and how it can change your perception on the world and your own life. I never have tried to force a friend of mine to try it with me, normally over time they will give into themselves and want to try it

Food of the Gods by terence mckenna is a great book.
my feeling about psychedelics is that if you do other substances your not gonna have too much fun. you have to be used to your state of consciousness being changed, or the shift can be a lil too much and too freaky for noobs. smoking weed is a must for shrooms, imo.
you should just convince him to take a threshold dose, just enough to feel it. i think it shouldnt be too tough to convince him to do that, and itl probably spark his curiosity and make him wanna do more. that would be my strategy

I hope you've read all these just because so few people read these days.
But as for the last book, I'd suggest "Food of the Gods" as boomer_q did over that one. Or just read both.

inform him of the pros and cons and make sure that he is emotionally stable and is currently in a good state of mind in his current life.
as long as there is no negativity in his brain and his feelings are up to par, he will not have a bad trip. explain to him why you want him to do them with you and explain how fun it will be. hype it up and make him crave it, your selling him this 
but ultimately, in the end make sure its something he wants to do. because if he doesnt, its only going to be hell!
