3.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive, not well organized, occassionally redundant, November 24, 1998

By A Customer

Summary pretty much sums it up. It was very comprehensive, but not well organized. It had similar material spread out. More tables would have helped. Also, certain key words were not bolded or included in the chapter end in the keywords section. Instead of CD it had a floppy disk which I actually considered an advantage because the sample test files were text files which could be printed for easier study and access. The sample test did not always give complete answers however. The graphics were pretty good but not thorough enough. The index needs to be more thorough also, but was adequate. The chapter quizes were good, but too simplistic for doing any good on the certification. It was about the best book on the market unfortunately.

5.0 out of 5 stars Students have loved it for Two Years Now!, April 25, 2000

By	Pamela M. (Canada) - See all my reviews

I have been an Administrator in this industry for several years and have used various books for very tasks. I have been teaching for three years and my students and I have found this book to be the best written for the classroom. My students have said "thank you" for choosing this book for two years running now. I look forward to the series on 2000 Server.

4.0 out of 5 stars Straight-forward answers, March 25, 2000

By A Customer

This was a very comprehensive book. It was easy to follow and the answers to the chapter reviews were easy to pull from the chapter. I did not have to read, and reread, and reread the chapter looking for a non-existent answer, as I have had to do in some books in the MCSE track. I only wish the textbooks that are being used at my school were all written by this author.
