I don't think there's one book that covers flatpicking, pima classical and fingerpicking with thumb and finger picks (let alone tapping, hybrid picking etc) (Similarly for piano there's Czerny, Bach, Liszt, Pischna, Dohnanyi (the gnarliest), Schmitt, and a bunch of other exercise books)
There are exercise books from "for Idiots", for Dummies, Guitar Aerobics, Guitar Grimoire, Troy Stetina, Culpepper (terrifying technique), also look at Guthrie Govan's 2 volumes, you can find lots of things to practice on for flatpicking. I've seen pumping nylon recommended a lot for classical/fingerstyle, but haven't tried it

You could try breaking the stamdards down into smaller sections and looping them. This works for me.
If you're okay reading a bit of treble clef, then Mike Steinel's book 'Building a Jazz Vocabulary' is worth a read.

Sometimes I get some stuff that are going out of stock soon. This is one of them. That first one is higher priority. But I understand if it is pricey. Here is something that is in a more acceptable price range! Both are going out of stock soon!
Hope you're having a great day :)
