Can you suggest me some document or website where I can learn about Special Use Airspaces?

My goal is to understand the following topics:

  • SUA definition
  • Types of SUAs
  • SUA pubblication
  • SUA creation and activation
  • Documents in which SUA geometry and time information are stored.

If you know some website, pdf or book where I can learn about SUA I would be very glad. Feel free to add to the answer also your suggestions and knowledge about what you know relative to SUAs (especially about where geometry and time infos are stored).

Note: I know wikipedia or eurocontrol have some definitions but they are too concise for me. I would like to get something quite detailed and complete.
