That link didn't work for me for whatever reason but assuming it's the Guide to Programming Analogue Synths by Howard Scarr this is a really good resource for learning your way around the Virus. However, I found when reading this that Howard assumes you already know a bit about synthesis and he's just telling you how to apply this existing knowledge to using the Virus.

@ GrooveNinja - judging by your questions you're after something more basic and fundamental as was I at the time (and I'm still learning!).

Firstly, the book you referred to, The Dance Music Manual, is one of the best books I've ever come across.

How to Make a Noise is a classic:

Also there's a bunch of info here:

I've also learnt a heap from reading the manuals for softsynths especially Native Instruments.
