If you want to read simple books and get the same results as everyone else by all means don't read Zatsiorsky, Verkhoshansky or any one of a number of other authors who are too complicated.
There's a difference between explaining a complicated topic and overcomplicating a topic. Science & Practice of Strength training is (IMO) unnecessarily complicated. For example - RFD has been explained by many authors. The Zat explanation is the most complicated one I've seen.
