"Algorithms for Computer Algebra" by Geddes. Contains a proof in chapter "12.4" Liouville's Principle. But I can't find the pdf for free.

Can anyone find or provide a demonstration please.

See An Invitation to Integration in Finite Terms, by Elena Anne Marchisotto and Gholam-Ali Zakeri (The College Mathematics Journal, 25, no. 4 (Sep., 1994), pp. 295–308). You will find it here. The theorem that you are interested in is what they call “Liouville's 1834 theorem”.
