I was wondering about that, too. Maybe he is just curious, it seems to be a pretty unique book after all, but I have also thought about the lich possibility. Maybe there is one path where he is tempted by the idea of becoming a lich.

Usually, I give the book to Astarion. Most likely, it is a bit of a risk to give it to him, as he is also not experienced with these kind of things, but I think he has a legitimate interest.
If this book offers indeed a possibility to bring the dead back to life (I am thinking of a True Ressurection Spell), maybe we can bring Astarion back (after killing him first, so he is dead-dead and not undead)?

This could be a "good" path to help him (if he wants to), he would be free from Cazador and the detriments of being a vampire spawn, without having to keep the tadpole. The way he talks about full vampires, I am not so sure if he is so keen on becoming one.

But maybe there are different paths here as well.
