Civ can be a bit daunting at first as it's just not clear what you're
supposed to be doing yet the game carries on!
To add to what Zaghadka has said do a google on Civ V strategy guides
and you'll find a wealth of information that helps you understand how to
play the game.
Haven't read this one but it looks like it has all the info you need ...
