Well, sorry if that was blunt, but it was much more polite than what
my first thought was - "someone who needs to ask such question should
better not be injecting prefixes into the global BGP routing system".

I like the Halabi book - and I know a number of very capable network
engineers that have learnt BGP from it (or even the PDF document that
was available before the book was printed).
It might not be fresh from the press, and maybe it has no glossy pages
- but then: the small bits that have changed since then (like IPv6, or
bgp deterministic-med) can easily picked up by someone who has fully
grokked the underlying principles.
