Default Books on wire fishing techniques and wiremold

Here is a good way to cut holes that makes it easy to patch them again:

Hi,

Are there any good books that could help me rewire a house? Most books
spend all their time talking about new work and only dedicate one page
or so to fishing techniques. That's not good enough, and to complicate
things further, I don't have an attic to help me fish wires on the
second floor (the roof is flat).

Having it done by pros is expensive but I could spend my next vacation
time doing it myself. But how do pros pull this off when there is no
attic? The second floor is a rental and every circuit must start at a
panel in the kitchen, so the cable has to travel from the kitchen to
every room. Is cutting a trench in the walls throughout the whole
appartment the only way?

I've seen that wiremold could be an interesting way to carry the wires
throughout the house, but it seems to be expensive when you need a
lot, and
it doesn't look nice. But never minding the look, has anyone here had
any experience with this?

Thank you
