"That" is a demonstrative pronoun i.e. it is used to denote something. In the corrected sentence "all the information you want" already specifies the information that the person wants and hence to accentuate it with "that" is unnecessary.

Here the word 'can' is used hence that is not used.

I think 'in' should be replaced 'from'. Correct sentence:.

You can get all the information that you want from this book.

Its right, if you are using ;THAT; you should replace;in; by from.

The sentence is correct with 'that' also, though it is extraneous.

'You can get all of the information that you want in this book'.

Is this right?

"that you want".. is when some one is asking.. so "you want" is used
