What would be the best way to learn Emacs.  Is it

a) Through the different Manuals (there are many and they are big)

b) Through a Book that puts all of the different pieces together in a
   concise mannner.

----------------------------------------------------------------

What do you think are the "must haves" in an Emacs book?  How often
should it catch up with new developments in Emacs releases?

----------------------------------------------------------------

For those who own a book on Emacs:

1. What is the book you own?

2. What is "good" about that book?

3. What is "bad" about that book?

----------------------------------------------------------------

How about resources like Emacswiki, Stackexchange or Stackoverflow.

----------------------------------------------------------------

TIA for all those who check-in to this thread.
