Musical Efforts journal October 1st- New Chords

So I spent 40 dollars on music theory and jazz guitar books. The first one that i'm getting into is called
"Mickey Baker's Complete Course in Jazz Guitar".1

I opened the first page and it shows the essential jazz chords that every jazz musician should know2

There are 26 of them
I only knew four of them..
oh and heres my favorite chord
G7#5b93

^4

It's a G chord with a minor 7th a sharpened 5th and a flated 9th
Can you say wow?
