The passage you provided describes two (not three) realizations of the English phoneme /ɹ/. You may call them two "manners of articulation", but they aren't the manners of articulation as a technical term in phonetics. The manner of articulation, in the technical sense, of both realizations is approximant (may be fricative when devoiced, e.g. in "price").
Here are MRI images of the two variants of English /ɹ/ (from Zhou et al. 2007 via Ladefoged & Maddieson (2010:95):
The two variants technically differ in place of articulation, the one postalveolar and the other somewhere between palatal and velar (Laver 1994:302 calls it "pre-velar"), but since they sound virtually identical and an articulatory investigation such as MRI or ultrasound would be required to tell you which, the distinction is rarely made and they are both usually treated as postalveolar and transcribed as [ɹ]. Some authors treat the apical variant as a retroflex approximant [ɻ]. Also note that the lip rounding and the retraction of the tongue root which your source describes (none, either, or both of which may accompany either realization as far as I can tell) are technically secondary articulations (labialization and pharyngealization, repsectively), but they are often disregarded in literature for the sake of simplicity or because they are allophonic (i.e. optional).
In reality, there are various shades of articulation between them (from Tiede 2007):
To produce the "bunched" (dorsal) variant, Catford (1988:170; via Wells 2010) recommends:
Produce a uvular trill. Note that in order to do this you have to form a longitudinal furrow in the tongue within which the uvula vibrates. Now move the whole body of the tongue slightly forward, while retaining precisely that deeply furrowed configuration. The result should be a close approximation to the typical American ‘bird vowel’, for which the phonetic symbols [ɝ] and [ɚ] have been used—both representing a central vowel with an r-like modification.
