Depending on your learning style theory can either be fairly simple or excruciatingly frustrating. I'm horrible at math so I found it to be incredibly complicated and thus sought the guidance of a teacher. He was able to explain it in a way that was easier for my muddled brain to understand. I would highly suggest going to the teacher route, that way you can ask questions immediately, rather than having to seek them out yourself. On the flip side though if money is tight and you'd rather not pay a teacher every month, a book is a good way to go, but I would highly recommend trying a few, pick up a couple different ones in both music stores, book stores, and even libraries to see if you can find an authors writing style that works for you.
