I've looked through at least a dozen. For neophytes, the best of
the bunch BY FAR is Goldblatt, Topoi: the categorial analysis of
logic . Don't be put off by the title. He not only explains the
stuff, but he explains the problems that motivated the invention of
the stuff. He doesn't cover monads, but he covers all the basics
very clearly, so once you've got that down you can move to another
author for monads.
He does cover monads, briefly. They're called "triples" in this
context, and the chapter on interpretations of the intuitionistic
logic depend on functorial/monadic techniques. If I remember
correctly, he uses the techniques and abstracts from them._______________________________________________
