Statement: Read this book to get detailed and most comprehensive information on this issue.

  1. The person who wants this information can read.
  2. There are other books available on this issue.

Only assumption I is implicit
Only assumption II is implicit
Either I or II is implicit
Neither I nor II is implicit
Both I and II are implicit
Answer: Option

I think the answer is A because there is no info about other books in the market, it is not like read this book only to assume other books are available he just say to read this book.

Answer will be (A). The reason is that other books are not mention in the statement.
