Gershom Scholem has books on subject that are good. He is actually Jewish and not some larping shizo. In many ways he is the standard in academic writing on it, but not really the modern Anglo footnote-obsessed style you refer to.

It's an esoteric subject, but also one popularized by the occasional brain dead celebrity. Most of what I know about it is, admittedly, from studies in the occult.
