4.0 out of 5 stars
In depth coverage of Exchange Server,
By A Customer
This review is from: Microsoft Exchange Server Training Kit (Microsoft Official Curriculum) (Paperback)
This book is one of the most comprehensive Exchange Server study guides on the market. Its only problems: 1) it's big (1200+ pages), 2) its prose is sometimes difficult, and 3) it repeats itself too often. If it wasn't for these flaws, however, I would give it five stars. The Sybex guide is shorter and better written, but it doesn't cover all the material that this book does.This guide is ideal if you are willing to invest the time it takes to learn the material. If you want a shorter exam guide, get the Sybex book (Easlick and Chellis) instead.

A Great Book for Learning Exchange but Poor for Exam,
By A Customer
This review is from: Microsoft Exchange Server Training Kit (Microsoft Official Curriculum) (Paperback)
This book has all you would need for the MS Exchange Exam BUT its too much information to assimilate! Well written book that has a great deal of exercises. Overall great book to have especially if you are not taking the exam.

Dump this book and buy another one!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Microsoft Exchange Server Training Kit (Microsoft Official Curriculum) (Paperback)
After the first 500 pages of this book I am definitely searching for another book worth reading as this one certainly is not! The format appears to be an attempt at a modular writing style but shows evidence that many different people may have had their hands in on the writing. Numerous different writing styles were encountered with excessive amounts of duplication of subject matter. Unfortunately with the large amount of duplication this book also suffers from contradictions from one explanation to another of the same specific topic. A large number of basic grammatical errors were encountered causing confusion and ultimately a trip to the WEB in hopes of finding better explanations for what should have been a simple topic.About the only possible use for this book, besides filling an empty bookshelf, is as a last resort reference after you have already spent hours elsewhere and can not find any other explanation for a question. If you have a logical mind and approach technical topics this way then stay clear of this book. It will only give you a headache!!! I have used other Microsoft Press books that were well written and that is the main reason I purchased this one. I am definitely surprised that Microsoft bothered to put their stamp of approval on this piece of drivel! The contents could easily be condensed into half its size and the remainder of paper used to provide a better in depth look at Exchange Server or to help save a tree!!
