I would say that this book would be best for those who want to take the stitches that you know, learn more, and design projects for yourself. It is not an exhaustive guide, but it has lovely sections that cover a brief history, materials and tools, color theory, design basics, specific design compositions and color schemes that work, and different embroidery applications (including straight seam, crazy quilt, applique, trims, borders, etc).
If you do not have a good embroidery reference work, this may be exactly what you've been looking for!
