This is the correct one for me. When I know nothing about something, I prefer book-style documentation, with explanations, examples, and context (the Llama, Conway's OOP, Chassell's Elisp Intro), but once I have a certain level of mastery, I prefer pure references (POD, manpages, the Elisp manual, source code).
