I found the amount of information a little intimidating on the first pass, and I already know some of it.
I'd like to see somewhat from people who learned to cook as adults about what was enough information to get them started, and more from people who aren't cooking but probably could be about what what makes getting started difficult for them.
On the cleaning side, I've got a couple of posts about scrubbing. It seemed to me that I had attention issues which made getting things clean difficult. I do, but it turned out that I also wasn't using hot enough water, and that expecting myself to get things clean on the first pass was like expecting myself to be able to write without needing to proofread.

A book which looks promising but which I haven't read: Make the Bread, Buy the Butter: What You Should and Shouldn't Cook from Scratch -- Over 120 Recipes for the Best Homemade Foods.
