Question RGB or sRGB

FIrst post new to proper photography.
I have Purchased a Canon Eos 550D. I am currently reading the magazine, "The Complete Canon SLR Handbook" It is very informative but I have come across a contradiction (I think)
On p13 Top Tips number 5, Features you can forget. Tip 5 Adobe RGB states. The Adobe RGB colour space isn't always printer friendly, so stick to sRGB if you want great looking prints every time.
YET.
on p53 Smarter set up. tip 10 states, Adobe RGB blar blar blar, YOU WILL RECORD A WIDER RANGE OF COLOURS IF YOU SET IT TO THE ADOBE RGB SETTING. THIS GIVES BETTER PRINTING RESULTS.
Could some one please advise me.
Regards.
Steve
