Microsoft Press, 2008 A great study guide and reference source! Great study guide and resource! In many cases, a Self-Paced study guide is mainly useful for preparing for the test and once you have passed the test, the book becomes a dust collector. This is not case with this book. The authors have done a fantastic job of not only covering the exam objectives, but have also written a book you will find very useful as a reference source and for providing ...             MCTS Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-431): Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Implementation and Maintenance ...37 reviews Solid Quality Learning Microsoft Press, 2006 Great Book, Great Author I bought this book because I had the opportunity to take a training course by one of the co-authors, Mike Hotek. Mike is an awesome teacher as well as writer. This book had very clear practical examples ranging from how to create a table to replication and database mirroring. I found that if you want to learn the just-above-the-basics of SQL 2005, this book is for you. Even if you don't know ...             Windows Server® 2008 Resource Kit2 reviews Windows Server Team at Microsoft, Microsoft MVPs and Partners Microsoft Press, 2008 Win2K8 Server Resource Kit I already bought in the past the 2003 resource kit and this one is still as it is/was for 2003: Great! Thanks all Nicolas             Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services 200537 reviews Brian Larson McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2005 A great way to learn the basics I just worked my way cover-to-cover and did every exercise. Sure, there are some errors in the book and sometimes it is not as clear as I would like and it does help to be a DBA but I think the book is rather above average in its accuracy. The book is not useful as a reference. But I highly recommend it as a great start. If you are not going to download the problems and do the exercises, then ...             MCSE Self-Paced Training Kit (Exams 70-290, 70-291, 70-293, 70-294): Microsoft® Windows Server(TM) 2003 Core ...23 reviews Dan Holme, Orin Thomas, ...

When I went for a job interview a few months ago all I knew about SQL was that it had something to do with databases. When I informed the interviewer I didn't know SQL, the look on his face let me know I was doomed. So as soon as I left that interview I got online and purchased this book determined to learn as much as I can, in an inexpensive way, and quickly. Wow! This book turned out to be all ...             Microsoft SharePoint 2007 For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech))11 reviews Vanessa L. Williams For Dummies, 2007 Excellent Primer on SharePoint SharePoint is an umbrella term used to describe a multitude of features and technologies. When people mention SharePoint, they're often referring to the part that is of interest to them, so it's hard to capture what SharePoint really is and what it can do. This book helped me to install SharePoint and give myself a whirlwind tour of WSS and MOSS in just 3 days. The Author is excellent and ...             Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Unleashed13 reviews Ray Rankins, Paul Bertucci, ... Sams, 2006 dotNet Developer As a dotNet Developer, I am often called upon to write my own database code or maintain existing db code. I am also called upon to diagnose performance problems or set security. Sometimes on lightly staffed projects, I am a defacto DBA. I have always strived to have a comprehensive understanding of the technologies I use. However, my level of understanding of SQL Server was more limited ...             JavaScript: The Definitive Guide272 reviews David Flanagan O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2006 Good introductory and reference book This book could easily serve as an introductory text to JavaScript. It offers enough depth for beginning JavaScript. Unfortunately, it does not delve enough into things like closure, which I believe is a very important language features. Furthermore, after the first or second reading, this book can handily serve as a reference book since part 3 and 4 of this book is reference to the classes, ...             SharePoint 2007 User's Guide: Learning Microsoft's Collaboration and Productivity Platform15 reviews Seth Bates, Tony Smith Apress, 2007 Excellent book for various skill-level users. This book is easy to use both as a learning tool and a reference tool. The many examples provided give good background on the context of the desired function, and explicit, step-by-step instructions. The book has lots of "usage" suggestions.             Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server 2007 Administrator's Companion16 reviews Bill English, The Microsoft SharePoint Community Experts Microsoft Press, 2007 Essentially the "Bible" The sheer amount of information presented in this volume is impressive in and of itself. The depth and quality of coverage into the many topics varies, and there's no one topic covered in totality, but this is the "one" book. English et al. nailed coverage across topics i.e. in scope and breadth. This is certainly not the book for beginners; there is a degree of basic SharePoint knowledge ...             Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Designer 2007 Step by Step6 reviews Penelope Coventry Microsoft Press, 2008 Beginner There are different levels of publications. Many publishers print beginner-, intermediate-, and advanced-level books. The Step-by-Step series is for beginners and should be rated accordingly. An ignorant intermediate-level reader picks up a Step-by-Step publication and rates it four stars because it was good, but beginner. Then an ignorant advanced-level reader picks up the same ...             Professional SharePoint 2007 Web Content Management Development: Building Publishing Sites with Office ...4 reviews Andrew Connell Wrox, 2008 Content Management in Depth WCM (Web Content Management) is becoming a "hot" item in many MOSS deployments. I should also clarify that this book is focused on WCM as opposed to ECM (Enterprise Content Management), as this seems to be a confusing topic for some. So it is mainly for those looking for working with the publishing infrastructure within MOSS (replacing MCMS - Microsoft Content Management Server), not with the ...             Programming Erlang: Software for a Concurrent World23 reviews Joe Armstrong Pragmatic Bookshelf, 2007 Very easy to digest I made an attempt at working through this book 6 months ago and didn't feel quite comfortable so I dropped it and instead pursued Programming in Haskell. Yesterday I decided to get back into Erlang and found it a complete breeze, powering through the entire book in a few hours. A lot of things seem to become really easy after working with Haskell, not to say that programming in Haskell is ...             Beginning SharePoint 2007: Building Team Solutions with MOSS 2007 (Programmer to Programmer)6 reviews Amanda Murphy, Shane Perran Wrox, 2007 Great Introductionary SharePoint Book When I started learning SharePoint, one of the biggest fundamental problem I had was to understand the new terms used in SharePoint. Sites, Site Collection, Web Application, Site Column, Content Types are some of those terms. Without understanding these basic terms, its hard to understand power of Sharepoint. Doesn't matter whether you are great SharePoint programmer or administrator, you need to ...             Windows Server 2008 Unleashed4 reviews Rand Morimoto, Michael Noel, ... Sams, 2008 Impressive!!! This book is a monster at 1337-pages (sorry, I don't count the 100-page index that brings this book to 1432-pages) and hard bound cover, REALLY NICE, I felt I got my money's worth! I've bought several of Rand's books in the past, this one is another winner! 37-chapters on everything from design and planning, through testing, through migrations, plus chapters on security, clustering, performance ...             Microsoft® Windows® SharePoint® Services 3.0 Step by Step (Step By Step (Microsoft))4 reviews Olga Londer, Bill English, ... Microsoft Press, 2007 Beginner I was faced with a project that could best be implemented with SharePoint, but I lacked experience, hence this book. It is an introductory book that presumes no foreknowledge of the subject and leads the reader incrementally through the features of SharePoint. The enclosed CD contains an eBook and the files for the chapter lessons. The print and page layout adhere to the proven format that ...             Professional SharePoint 2007 Development (Programmer to Programmer)12 reviews John Holliday, John Alexander, ... Wrox, 2007 A must have if you are serious about MOSS 2007 Development I always find WROX books are the best value for money. This book is no exception. The details this book provides is atypical and that is what I find very useful. Devil is in the details and we need that for programming. If you are interested in Solutions Development on SharePoint Platform, this book is a very good companion.             System Center Operations Manager 2007 Unleashed8 reviews Kerrie Meyler, Cameron Fuller, ...
