Good, not great

Like others, I recommend this to be a part of the library in any maintenance and engineering department that is responsible for Rockwell-based automation systems. It's a good overview and should be helpful in a mixed environment.It is not a textbook and advanced programming techniques but should help you understand the use of data files, file instructions, indirect addressing, IO structure and data structures.There is probably never going to be a single book that covers the whole gambit, but this is about as close as you are likely to get with the AB platforms.
