The Phoenix Project is good for an explanation of the business reasons why certain ways-of-working are important.

  Having read this, I would not recommend it to someone that actually wants to learn the tools.

    no, definitely not. but it's an enjoyable fictional read that has lots of devops concepts but isn't a flat out tech book. i found that to be a nice change of pace from the non-stop barrage of tech articles, tutorials, and straight to the point o'reilly books i'm typically reading. it also highlights real world examples that i could definitely relate to and thought that i was alone in going through. clearly i'm not alone on it if there's this book written with people going through similar frustrating experiences.

    Yea, the only way it would help you learn the tools is by helping you articulate why the tools serve a business need--thereby making it easier to allocate time/money for the tools.
