Ok, where to start? How about with the beginning -- can this software be loaded onto a server where an existing web site is already deployed and functional? The book doesn't answer that question. Neither do the "professionals" at Microsoft unless you spend $259 on a "per incident" consulting call. Hmmm... I want to ask the question about THEIR product prior to deploying, exactly to "prevent an incident." No dice. After reading half the book, I'm not going to risk it. On further examination, the only way to really use SharePoint to its fullest is by buying a real heavy load of additional Micro-software, such as the top-end Office suite, etc. Seems even after deployment, this program is less about "solving problems" for end-users than it is to lock people into additional Micro-software. Small surprise there. Also, if you do deploy it, and install a template, don't reconsider the choice. You'll have to reload and start over. If this book were published by any other source, I'd be less brutal. But come on man, it's YOUR program, and you can't answer a simple question without reaching for my credit card? Put the answer to THAT question in the book, on page 1. Might save a lot of people a lot of time. Isn't that the whole purpose of computing, to make life EASIER on people? Apparently, not in Redmond. I was actually looking forward to using SharePoint. For now, we'll stick with FTP sites (reliable, and well-understood), and build our Intranet on something more logical, like WordPress.

Compared to the "Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Inside Out" (which I also own) from the same author, this book is incomplete. The previous edition included chapters on how to install and maintain SharePoint. This book doesn't. It will give you an overall picture of SharePoint Foundation 2010 and some. This is a good book to start with for a business/advanced user. If you are a SharePoint Administrator/Developer, look elsewhere.

With all the new features and enhancements in the 2010 release of SharePoint you can use this guide to migrate from an older version or start fresh and recreate your designs. The change in the UI can be difficult to master and finding your way around the features daunting. This book simplifies it it putting it at your fingertips.

Keeping up with the three year cycle of Microsoft is getting tougher and digesting al the new technologies daunting. The books in the Inside Out series help you get up to speed quickly and in detail. If you want to leverage the new SharePoint find a place for this book in your library.

Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2012
A pretty good book on SharePoint Foundation 2010 overall. What distinguishes this book from others is that it deals with some more advanced topics that you normally don't find in other SharePoint books. These advanced topics include SharePoint Designer and development with Visual Studio.

Have these advanced topics probably makes the book less appealing to those new to SharePoint but is worthwhile for those looking to improve their experience with SharePoint beyond the basics. The books contains plenty of examples and is easy to read. It is also focused specifically on SharePoint Foundation 2010 which makes it different from most generic SharePoint books you find.

All in all a worthwhile read but perhaps more so for that person with an existing exposure to SharePoint who is looking to extend not only the capabilities of SharePoint but also their own experience with the product.

At 778 pages, "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Inside Out" is a massive base of information for users, technologists and architects crafting solutions on SPF2010. Errin O'Connor, Penelope Coventry, Michael Doyle, Troy Lanphier, Johnathan Lightfoot, and Tom Resing have delivered an encyclopedic tour of all that can be done on this platform by administrators, users, business sponsors and developers.

Chapter 2 is a great beginning for folks trying to determine if SharePoint2010 Foundation alone is right for them. There's a lot of distinctions, explanations and screen shots comparing base functions to those offered by Search Server Express, SharePoint Server Standard and Enterprise, FAST, Search Server, etc. All of which helps enable business sponsors to understand the implications of their platform decisions. There's an arsenal of end user techniques for working with lists and libraries and creating sites. However, there are also extensive sections on customizing SharePoint with Visual Studio or administering via PowerShell - not easy topics for a casual business power user!

The authors do a good job of providing clear examples of WHY a certain list or site might be used - for example, you might use a Document Workspace to organize a Disaster Recoery plan and related documents. In addition, the authors provide plenty of step-by-step instructions with plenty of helpful screenshots.

Some of the sections provide a lot more value than their titles suggest. For example, there's a section on Managing Site Content that actually provides a good introduction to SharePoint information architecture and governance. As you might expect, this is valuable to users of both SharePoint Foundation as well as the various SharePoint 2010 Server platforms.

Read carefully, though. There are a few parts of this book that discuss technologies only available in the paid, SharePoint 2010 Enterprise version of the product, such as the Decomposition Tree in Performance Point Although the authors make clear that this isn't part of SPF2010, these sections out of context could be misleading. Read the whole book!

SharePoint Foundation 2010 is a "free" product. Given that price, this book becomes an essential investment to accelerate value on the platform.
