Answer is yes, books are always useful. The believe system we have now is a combined result of everything we know yet. Though we don't realize the result immediately after reading a book. Books give a lot of information, experience of other people's life, lessons from success and failure of others. This gives experience of many lives, which I could have never afford to live on my own. This gives reasons to look myself from a different perspective, challenge my old beliefs.
A book is completely different from a tutorial. Unlike tutorials books can not be followed step by step. Books talk more on raw principles which should be personalized to be used. And to personalize, it needs to be understood thoroughly.
As I read, I understand, I change, I change everyday. I'm often asked, are you being mislead by books? No, I'm not mislead. I don't believe anything blindly and don't use any principle that I do not understand completely. Because of curiosity I start way more things than I can handle, this should not be confused with being mislead.
