4.0 out of 5 stars This book is good -- for a beginning developer, April 20, 2000

By A Customer

If you are a beginner who has taken Tools I and II and PeopleCode but have no actual experience, this book will reinforce what you learned in class and keep your skills fresh for when you start development. The authors give you EVERYTHING you need to be a productive developer. Those with much PeopleSoft Development experience won't find it too helpful though.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great Start but confusing toward the end, September 30, 1999

By A Customer

I used this book to re-enforce my understanding of PeopleSoft and how it is structured but I was only able to gain a very basic understanding of how to use the PeopleSoft development tool. Also, I had to pay very close attention to the text written in the book and the illustrations provided. It is very easy to get lost and confused.

One person on my project team bought this book and it has grown to become the go to source. I wound up buying two more copies for the rest of the team to use.
