Which are some books which have exercises to find the best move in the position?Not tactics-only books, but those who have both positional and tactical exercises mixed in.  I only know of "Bent Larsen's Good move Guide" and  Vlastimil Hort's "The Best Move", which I already have

Test Your Positional Play, by Bellin and Ponzetto. Out of print, but very good and used copies are usually available.

Test Your Chess Skills, by Guliev

Strategic Chess Exercises, by Bricard

I've also heard good things about the Grivas book that @kindaspongey mentioned.

How good is your chess - Daniel King. A fun point based book.

"Chess Training Pocket Book" by Lev Alburt and "Practical Chess Exercises" by Ray Cheng both have exactly what you're looking for. 300 positions in Alburt's book and 600 in Cheng's. 
They both have a combination of positional, tactical, and endgame positions, and you have no idea which is which--just as in a real game. Problems on the left page, with solutions and explanations on the right page. Just cover up the right page with a notecard and enjoy. It's real brain exercise because you don't know if you're looking for an obvious tactic or a subtle positional move.
