You Just Can’t Beat A Good Book!
The benefit of a book, when you are learning, is that it puts all of the information you need into one place. To my mind, it doesn’t matter whether you read a printed paper version or a Kindle version, just so long as you read it. That having been said, some of the larger books, and those written in a “workbook” style where you are encouraged to make notes, are better consumed from a traditional printed version.
However you choose to read them, these are the books that we have read, used and recommend. Enjoy.
