Subject: What's the difference between "book learning" and "autolearning"?

  I was reading this review of Genius 5.
1) Genius is now a learning program. You can turn on the autolearn feature in
the options menu and Genius will save the critical position, from every game it
loses, in a file called G5AUTOL.dat. Genius will only learn if it had thought
more than 30 seconds on that position during the game.
24) Genius has no book learning feature.

  Is one learning feature superior to another?  Do the current top programs use
the same type of learning features?
