Can someone tell me what is different between further and farther? Explain to me please.

Further and Farther

From what I have learned, farther expresses ideas of physical distance like "The supermarket is farther than my house." Further applies to everything else. "You are further in the book than I am."

Correct me if I am wrong anybody.
