Modern Romance by Aziz Ansari is a nice, funny read. I also enjoy Mark Manson's Models. There is some criticism, but it actually covers a lot more than they say. You may also like The Tao of Dating depending on how you view it.

No not really. Every book I've looked into either is wrong a lot or misses a lot of the picture. There is this website called wikihow that will help you more.

Here's my cup of tea, may not be directly related to dating but they are relevant for a reason:

1) No More Mr. Nice guy - Robert Glover

2) The Four Loves - C. S. Lewis

3) The Thrill of the Chaste - Dawn Eden (interesting read: a woman who
would be classified by the red pillers as a typical female, realized how
damaging her life was and converted to christianity in order to live a
chaste life and promote other people to do the same... a simple
counterexample on how the red pill community's dogmas are false).

4) Single, Dating, Engaged, Married: Navigating Life and Love in the Modern Age - Ben Stuart

5) Boundaries Updated and Expanded Edition: When to Say Yes, How to Say No
To Take Control of Your Life - H. Cloud and J. Townsend

Many men want to know how to date succesfully. However, it is much more important to know WHY men date (hint: courtship is a discernment for marriage); what is marriage like (hint: it is NOT all about sex and fun memories), how to choose he right person (hint: it is not a Victoria's Secret model's body what makes a woman the right candidate for marriage), what to do during the courtship process (hint: not have sex to see how things go).

More important that good books on dating is to find good books on marriage, true masculine character, and how to build a family where healthy communications are the rule.

I would also encourage Dr. George Simon's books. "In sheep's clothing" can help people discern and detect manipulative people.

Honest answer is no. Society has changed too much for those books to apply to modern dating and modern societal norms.
