In the book, I found the ways a dribble can end, but not when a dribble can begin.

You must call a lot of illegal dribbles if you don't know when a player can begin a dribble.

You know a player cannot begin a dribble after lifting his/her pivot foot. And you know a player cannot begin dribble if they jump in the air with the ball. What else are you looking for that will help you with your original scenario.

I think of these being illegal, not because of when started, but rather because of how.

You didn't find when it can begin, because it can begin any time. What cannot begin any time is a second dribble.
