I won this book through goodreads first-reads!

This is the book that Aperture 2 users need. It goes far beyond the Apple Pro Training Series: Aperture 2 book (which isn't exactly bad, but is very short on detail).
This book provides a very nice tutorial on how to extract maximum dynamic range from a RAW file, balancing the boost, exposure and recovery sliders (and more), really putting Aperture through its paces and revealing considerable hidden depths.
