For a real in-depth consideration, the best I know of is "Acoustical
Aspects of Woodwind Instruments" by Cornelis Nederveen, published in
1969 in Amsterdam by Frits Knuf. It is a very hard read for me. I think
it is best suited for those with degrees in engineering or advanced
mathematics. BTW, this book was originally published in Dutch, but there
is an English language version of it.
