It means that book recommendations have to be appropriate to your current ability. Otherwise it's like giving "See Spot Run" to a fluent reader, or War and Peace to a 5 year old.

I would highly recommend Pandolfini's Ultimate Guide to Chess and Pandolfini's Endgame Course: Basic Endgame Concepts Explained by America's Leading Chess Teacher.

Both give a great introduction into improving and studying chess.

Is there any alternative book to logical chess. which is written in old annotation.

Avatar of JugglinDan

Irving Chernev's Logical Chess is available in algebraic notation. There is also Neil McDonalds Chess: The Art of Logical Thinking, which is a more modern take on the same idea.

Both of the ones I recommended are perfect for beginners

Watch this first video of IM Saravanan from India on his choices of instructional chess books. 

If you can’t get enough of his classic and sound choices, here’s part 2. 

He also has guidelines on how to read and learn efficiently from books. Great advice from a chess coach:
