Although the English text of the LaTeX book is copyrighted and the
(La?)TeX driver file for its production isn't as widely available as
that for the TeXbook, the TeX definition of LaTeX, and all of its "Style
Files" (*.sty) are available as a standard part of the LaTeX
distribution.  Les Lamport has gone some distance to motivate and
explain the mechanisms he defines in LaTeX.  ...but it isn't easy
reading.  There are TeX comments in the latex definitions and a non-TeX
functional-notation version explaining what goes on in LaTeX.

See <wherever your tex lives>/inputs/latex.tex, ..../*.sty,  .../*.doc
(The .doc files are often compressed.)
