Tis not a simplistic approach!
The best way to learn is through application. Books are great and have their use as far as reference, but solving the problem requires diligence and skill.
Helping others here is a great way to learn.
Plus, what you get from a book is what is supposed to work, what you get from here is what actually works. I have tons of books and perhaps they have given me about 10 to 20% of what I have attained so far. I have found the help files better than books in general. You'll stump your growth with that attitude grandpa!
Happy posting!
