If you feel you are still close to your ex in-laws then feel free to phone your ex mother-in-law's family and express how you feel about her loss. If you do not feel that close to the family then proper etiquette is to send a sympathy card and flowers to the home addressed to her husband and family.
Not unless he is a close family member, and the setting is private or very informal.
The accepted proper way to respond to a person expressing their sympathy for your loss (as far as "etiquette" goes) is to simply say "Thank You".
It's called being a polite and sophisticated person in the workplace. But have common sense. Don't be too proper but go ahead and add some class to the workplace. Just make sure your happy about it and your not upsetting any costumers, co-workers, or/and your boss.
Be yourself
Yes it is. A personalized message on it would also be nice.
Please practice proper etiquette when in public.
* It depends on who you are giving the book too. If you are giving it to a teen in the family it's fine, but if you are giving it to a friend or girlfriend or even a boyfriend it's not a good idea as they may think you are putting down their manners. Manners today are extremely lax, but, it's a good idea to learn proper etiquette for future use.
The proper etiquette upon recipiency of a complement is "thank you"
Yes. It is proper etiquette, although it is also common for them to decline (but that probably depends on your relationship with him/her).
