Sorry, I'm sure it's been asked before but I can't find anything recent that pertains to this in other threads and just got lost trying to navigate through everything.
I'm looking for the equivalent to Small Stakes Holdem by Sklansky/Miller/Malmuth, basically.
I have "Pot-Limit Omaha Poker" by Jeff Hwang, which seems good but I'd hate to be studying something that's outdated or inferior to another book. What's considered the PLO bible these days?

Read the part in the first Hwang book about the merits of different preflop hand structures, then set it on fire. Then read whatever, with the following four things in mind.
1) All specific advice is outdated
2) Each book contains insight into concepts that will assist you in understanding the game.
3) Each book contains insight into concepts that will mislead you into tragic misconceptions about the game.
4) Good luck telling (2) from (3) without going broke.
Books work for something like loose full ring LHE because most decisions are standard. PLO is not like that...
