^sometimes I think Peter's quest for knowledge may be as great as his one for power but then in some instances they are the same thing. I rewatched the scene where Derek gave up his spark and looking back on it now it could have been that Peter really was interested in seeing whether or not it would work. Could be the same with why he wanted to save Jackson...just to see if it really would work...anyway I agree with what you said about it maybe being a book with a history of some sort and if it has any kind of rituals in it...I  could see Derek/Peter getting into trouble rather quickly.
