@uri65 -
By the way. I meant to thank you for alerting us to Sam Shankland's new book on pawn play. It looks good. I have ordered a copy!
You are welcome! I'll really apreciate to know your opinion after you read it. Unfortunately my speed of reading is way too slow.
On Amazon it has received only 5-star reviews so far. At least it reassures me that my first impression was not completely wrong 
I just ordered my copy of Shankland's book. Anyone know if he is planning to write a series on various topics? I'm also the proud owner of one of the rare Kmoch editions that was published in algebraic by I think American Chess Promotions in Macon Georgia.
You can get this on Chessable as well of course - and it's a much better format: https://www.chessable.com/small-steps-to-giant-improvement/course/16078/

Besides being available in HC or PB it is published by Quality. Unless you are talking about an ebook or print the "much better format" makes no sense.
And to get to the person's question Quality just released Shankland's next book, available right now. It is titled Small Steps 2 Success-Mastering Passed Pawn Play
I have not read any reviews yet, I know his first book was nominated for the best chess book of the year.

I don’t understand what you are trying to say. Do you know Chessable?
In my opinion Chessable is certainly better format than paper. Chessable vs Forward Chess is a different question, for me it depends on a book type, anything to solve is better on Chessable, game collections are better on Forward Chess.
This is a good book for pretty much any level of player, provided you have basic board vision (ie. 1300+ elo OTB roughly). Shankland does a good job of explaining things in great detail, using comparisons between similar positions.
1300?! I have beaten some of those folks the last couple years... excellent, thanks, Hicetnuc. Maybe I will take a look at this after I get through Kmoch and Hickl.
