1.0 out of 5 stars Warning! Warning! Warning!, September 4, 2001
This review is from: MCSE Windows 2000 Security Design Exam Cram (Exam: 70-220) (Paperback)
This book is absolutely terrible! I truly and honestly cannot believe that someone was actually paid to write it. I cannot tell you how bad this book is. I mean, I would have given this book NO STARS if it were possible. The author writes as if he is writing his doctoral thesis in physiological psychology instead of a book for computer professionals preparing to take their Microsoft Exam 70-220: Windows 2000 Security Design. Even when you know what the author is talking about, you don't. Consider the following example of his drivel:

"Just as the study of animal physiology provides a rationale for many peculiar behaviors, you better understand functional adaptations in a business workflow when you explore the limitations in the underlying structure that caused it."

Translation: DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!

1.0 out of 5 stars A terrible read. I found it incredibly difficult to follow., January 18, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: MCSE Windows 2000 Security Design Exam Cram (Exam: 70-220) (Paperback)
<excerpt> "..You might assume that because of the increase in use of the Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) in software development and the emphasis on software interoperability across non-Microsoft "cultures" (e.g., Novell, Unix, and Machintosh), a major Widows 2000 theme is a scalable organizational structure."

What!?! While the contents of the book appears to be presented in a logical order, it reads like a list of unrelated thoughts. You may think this is an isolated example but it's not. That excerpt was from Chapter 2 - Security Overview. I assure you there is plenty more where that came from.

I would definately not recommend this book, and it just reinforces my belief that since the NT 4 series, the quality of Coriolis books has seriously suffered. I'll stick with Sybex.

1.0 out of 5 stars Horribly Written Book, March 16, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: MCSE Windows 2000 Security Design Exam Cram (Exam: 70-220) (Paperback)
I agree with all previous reviews. This book is not what you come to expect for an ExamCram. The author may understand the concepts he is presenting, but presents it in such "businessease" that it is EXTREMELY difficult to follow. This was the biggest waste of money I have ever invested in a preparation guide! DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK! The authors writing is horrible!
