One of the handiest texts I had to get for my horticulture classes was Plant Propagation: Principles and Practices. The 2017 version only costs 13 USD new and is pretty much the same textbook as the 2019 version.

It has great info on the hows and whys of cuttings, root stocks, and most common species of herbaceous and woody plants.
