books are not a good format for a constantly changing field - there is new tools and new features being released relatively frequently so anything that is not a living document is doomed to be stale at the time of printing
Exactly that I was about to respond.
I was struggling even with my guides to keep them updated.
Things in Bitcoin are changing so fast and so often that is quite hard to keep up with them.
I was thinking too to write a book based on my guides, but I renounce the idea, exactly because of that: will became obsolete in matter of months.

@aljaz @DarthCoin I understand the problem and I agree that books have a limited life when applied to constantly evolving technology.
However, for someone who is starting, consuming a list of links to separate sources with different writing styles, without a coherent narrative and line of thought, is a crappy experience and will leave a person with many holes in his knowledge.
For example, when learning something new from scratch, I like to read a good book to lay the ground to further explorations.
But again, that question about who's writing the book, was a small joke.

I think https://www.plebnetwiki.com/ is a good start if you want a cohesive overview of things in one place.

who's writing the book
You are welcome to take all my guides, are open source and free here https://github.com/Darth-Coin/darth-coin.github.io (website here) and put them into a book as you like 😂😂😂
I really understand you man, a nice coffee table book with all these will be good.
