Typical Wrox bilge [Posted on 2008-03-04]
Wrox books have become predictably bad and this one is no exception. It is filled with non-working, hard to follow examples and incomplete information. Unless you want everyone in your organization using Visual Studio to post their Word documents, this book is not for you. The section on creating webparts does not work and it contains DEAD LINKS to on-line sites. Ouch! Did anyone edit this thing?

Being written by multiple authors also does not help. The book lacks a continuous voice and each section is written with a different focus. The book should be retitled "Random, Incoherent Musing Over SharePoint" as that is what it is.

Examples are not working! [Posted on 2008-04-03]
Can't someone edit this book before it's published? For example, chapter 9 workflow integrating with InfoPath is not working! There are missing information here and there and I wouldn't have known unless I look at the author website. But still, it doesn't work (your initiation form is missing).

Great book. [Posted on 2008-06-09]
Very good practical book on SharePoint. I own several different books on this topic and this one is GREAT!

not recommended..much better books are out there [Posted on 2008-07-02]
This books lacks rhythm. Being written by multiple authors, its a bumpy ride from chapter to chapter. Most of the examples dont work.

Nothing Beats the Real World [Posted on 2008-07-20]
What a great book. It shows you how things are really done. Showing you examples from start to finish it is a great resources when planning or designing a sharepoint environment. What is best is that most chapters leave you with some many ideas not only from what is written but also what else the MVP's cover.

A Great Work!!
