In the first couple pages of this book, the author notes that in order to get the most benefit from it, you should have a little experience on Amazon. I would agree with this advice. Even if you haven't done much yet, having a basic understanding of the process will be helpful as this book does not cover things like setting up an account from scratch.What it does cover however are a variety of steps and options for building your business. For example, there is specific information about certain kinds of items that historically sell well. The author also includes ideas for finding suitable items locally, as well as the potential markup/profit. If you've been selling for a long time, these may not be new to you, but they also might be, depending on how many resources you've tried.I haven't read other books on this topic yet, but in business in general, people don't often like to share this kind of information because they fear giving someone else a competitive edge.  Clearly, this author's heart is set on helping others along with running his own company, and he is not concerned that he'll be put out of business by doing so.If you're in the early to intermediate stage of your business and you want to continue to educate yourself,  I would recommend you add this book to your list of resources.
