I'd love to read a book that teaches concepts "in anger" — where you're given a big problem statement with lots of subproblems; and then, in each chapter, the author: • introduces a subproblem, that would be solvable but for one tool you're currently missing; • introduces the tool you'll need to solve the subproblem; • explains the tool in the process of using the tool to solve the subproblem. Only explaining as much of the tool as is necessary to solve the subproblem — more can be explained in later subproblems. Sadly, I find that most books like this first introduce all the tools you'll need; teach them all thoroughly (including teaching stuff you won't need at all, because it's part of the explanation as traditionally taught); and then go about solving all of the subproblems using all of the tools, in a pretty random order. So the first half ends up boring, and the second half ends up messy and hard-to-follow.
