If you are referring to Ann Cook's book, then yes, it's good. I think it's the most popular one, not sure you'd find anything much better. That said, it's not "perfect". It's a good starting point if you want to understand American English. I mean, some parts might seem confusing and you might come across some little mistakes, and she will be telling what you have to do, but don't take that book like it's the bible, don't believe everything she says. That book will help you understand how Americans speak, and it'll help you "listen" to American English, so then you can improve by yourself over time. For example, she says that n's after t's are not pronounced in American English, so she says twenty -> twenny, center -> cener, Toronto -> Torono... That's what I do, but don't expect every American to talk that way, I hear 90 as niny (no t), ninety (with t) or ninedy (tapped t), so as you see you'll actually hear a lot of different pronunciations, not only what she says. And by the way, I really believe Ann Cook's got an accent that is not neutral...
So, yeah, go ahead and learn from Ann, it is definitely something you've gotta do if you are serious about learning American English.
