"Improve Your Poker Now" - Any good? Reliable?

I picked up Fitzgerald and Topher's "Improve Your Poker Now!".

Is it any good? Is the information inside reliable?
So far I'm enjoying it a lot, but a friend of mine (who's much more experienced) raised the salient point that Fitzgerald doesn't post results.

I'm also quite new to the game and would struggle to independently know
if what I'm being taught is garbage.

Thanks all!

It’s a solid read for developing foundational thinking, especially around aggressive play and hand reading. While Fitzgerald isn’t known for sharing detailed results, his insights are generally respected. Just be sure to cross-reference with more current materials, since poker strategy has evolved a lot.

Hello. I've never heard of it - Always compare several alternatives, there are plenty of good options, choose from a wide range of validated material and avoid unknowns.
