I'm partial to:

AppleScript: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition by Matt Neuburg

It's old now but technically sound.

Learn AppleScript: The Comprehensive Guide to Scripting and Automation on Mac OS X by Hamish Sanderson and Hanaan Rosenthal

It's very comprehensive.

Hi Jean-Christophe,

I'm in complete agreement with Christopher's book suggestions. 

But let me recommend another book as well. Like the others, it's dated but excellent nonetheless:

AppleScript (Developer Reference) by Mark Conway Munro

If you're working with large scripts or many scripts, I highly recommend Munro's section on "open-ended programming", as he calls it. It's a method of code organization that can minimize pain when it's time to repurpose or expand—or change the environment of—your script(s).

Regards
Stan C.
