Hi Victor,
Books as such I can’t tell, but I’m working on tutorials on table design.
For instance, imagine the UX of Amazon or Ebay showing you a table with all of their products. Like AMD does in this page: https://www.amd.com/en/products/specifications/processors https://www.amd.com/en/products/specifications/processors
In short, their problem is not about table design, but how to design without a table.
In other words, think of table as a detail, as opossed to a starting point. Sometimes a table would fine, especially if it has no row variants. But if you have conditional actions across rows, or too many unused fields per row, then a table would be too difficult to implement and use.
As you mentioned contextual actions in a table, I’m pretty sure you can provide a better UX if you don’t use a table. For example, in my product I started out with a table drafting out the team members per account (invite, resend invited, remove, etc). But I ended up better by using cards. So I drafted each row variant in a card.
