That probably depends on the specific setting or GM, but the way I'd do it, the instructions for the various abilities are embedded in the Book, whether as direct information, or as subtext that leads the mind in that direction... or the Book itself (EDIT: meaning the physical object) is psychically attuned, has an astral entity attached, or is a piece of psychotronics, and guides the mind like that.
