Thank you.
I am looking for a book with more detailed scheduling theories and techniques, though.

Is not easy question to answer mainly because the focus you are thinking to get the answer. Generally speaking I will say that (most of them are software related but you can apply it in other domains)::
-Peopleware, Tom Demarco
-Controlling Software Projects, Tom Demarco
-Meassure for Excellence, Putnam
-Agile Software Development, Cockburn
Plus the books @Kiron stated above. Both are must read.

Forecast Scheduling with MS Project Eric Uyttewaal. ; ISBN-10: 0986733903. I read, and taught with the 2013 text, though there is an updated text available for 2018 and online.
The text focuses on MS Project but has some great tips and insight about general scheduling regardless of tool. Hope this helps.
