While passion will not necessarily be at odds with utility, it seems from the "About" section that this book is all about utility: Deliberately choosing what skills to develop in order to be able to "market" and "sell" them more effectively.
Nothing wrong with that, but it has little or nothing to do with being a passionate programmer.
