Wow, I probably wouldn't waste my money on a book like that.
In my experience, I just downloaded wordpress and started using it. When I came to something I couldn't figure out, I would go to google and type in my question and have always found an article on the web that gave me enough info to help me work through it.
My best suggestion as someone who has been blogging for 2 years with wordpress: just start using it man. It's a fairly easy setup and once you get in the groove, figuring it out is pretty easy.
BTW, I am not a tech guru at all. I couldn't program my way out of a paper bag. But I have built websites and blogs and have ran message boards and there have been very few times when I couldn't find the info I needed on the net for free. Most of the problems and issues you face are issues that other people have faced and asked about on the net.
