Thanks, I literally just came here to ask for book recommendations on this topic. Are there any other suggestions?

  I know this sounds like a cliche at this point, but volume 3 of Donald Knuth's "The Art of Computer Programming" goes into more depth on the theory that underpins these algorithms than anything else I've ever seen/read/heard of (in fairness, I haven't read OP's suggestion yet, though).
