There are plenty of basic concepts in that book that apply to both limit and NL. The sections on EV and preflop play (ie, the advice on which hands to raise preflop, which to limp with and which you want to play heads-up vs. multiway) and the advice on aggression all apply to NL. I think part of my "slump" was attributable to getting too passive and limping with hands I should be raising and hoping to hit the flop, as opposed to being the aggressor and taking control of the hand. The book helped remind me (and reinforce for me) the proper way to play (ie, avoid being passive except in limited circumstances).
