I have a copy of this book, though I never got past the few pages. When I tried to read it I got through the first chapter, which says the first thing one should do is play many games, and I put the book down to do just that.

It also makes a great point that while amateurs play the game for fun, professionals will labor at it. I thought that was a fantastic point

For context, I occasionally play against the AI on an iPad app called SmartGo, probably 24-36 kyu rank.

Another good iPad app is CS Pro Go. It will do game analysis which is useful, but time consuming. I took online lessons a few years ago from a South Korean Go master and enjoyed having my games analyzed. CS Pro Go is obviously not as good as a Go teacher.
Could you link the app directly? Googling Valve's CS: GO makes googling for "CS Pro Go" borderline impossible.
