If you're interested in acquiring a book on it, let me recommend the one from Chronicle Books, The Egyptian Book of the Dead: The Book of Going Forth by Day. I've owned a few books on it and while others have more scholarly interest, they can also be dry reading. The Chronicle Books edition shows images of the scroll, and then gives you the translation underneath, which I found incredibly visually interesting as a non-Egyptologist.
If you want more scientific detail and analysis, I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will recommend a more recent book. I got my start three decades ago with The Papyrus of Ani in the British Museum, by E. A. Wallis Budge. Lots of fascinating historical detail, even if his conclusions have probably all been refined or refuted since then.
There are several books on Egypt that are well worth your while, including (in no particular order):
Serpent in the Sky: The High Wisdom of Ancient Egypt by John Anthony West.
Egyptian Magic by Florence Farr.
On the Mysteries of the Egyptians, Chaldeans and Assyrians by Iamblichus, trans. by Thomas Taylor.
Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World by Gerald Massey.
The Book of the Dead trans. by E.A. Wallis Budge.
I hope that helps.
