Answer 1

I suppose you are using rxjs 6+ version (if no, please provide your version) so you need to use pipeable operators instead of directly call them over observable:

import {map} from 'rxjs/operators';

***

getBook(id: number): Observable<Book>{
  return this.getBooks()
    .pipe(map(books=> books.find(book=>book.id === id)));
}
