The thread was started by someone who struggles to read a chess book. It does not matter what book they read, it's a question of patience and motivation. Even if they absorb 5% of the information from a book, it will be worth it and maybe it will inspire them to read another book.

Chess is a position dependent game. You will extract patterns and themes as well as general advice by reading books, but ultimately each position must be evaluated through concrete calculation.
