Huh? Doesn't seem at all to me.

"Learning furniture maintenance. This book will have approximately 400 
pages and and the vision behind this book is to introduce practical 
concepts and tasks specific to furniture maintenance."

It's a very generic characterization, even a tad too generic. If I were 
an acquisition editor I'd go for more eloquent phrasing ("this book" is 
repeated etc).
