Learning resources for Aeon/Monero/CryptoNote

[ghost]

This is a non-issue but I am interested in learning more about the cryptonote protocol. I am young and haven't learned much about cryptography but know the algebra well enough up to galois. Does anyone have a good place to recommend for learning some things about Ring signatures, ? I was about to take a look at Zero to Monero. Is there any textbooks that can be recommended that were interesting? Or somewhere in the aeon codebase to look at. Thanks in advance!
