...is discussed in light of this book
or do you have to add: is discussed in the light of this book

First one was corrrect. "the light" would be wrong in that case.

You first expression would imply that the subject is discussed because of what the book revealed as an issue or problem, but the latter asserts that what is being discussed is done so affirmatively!

is discussed in this book....I think would be more appropriate. It's simple and easy to understand.

Either is OK, the 1st is more likely to be used.
