4 out of 5 stars Nothing Beats the Real World   July 20, 2008
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!!



1 out of 5 stars not recommended..much better books are out there   July 2, 2008
This books lacks rhythm. Being written by multiple authors, its a bumpy ride from chapter to chapter. Most of the examples dont work.


5 out of 5 stars Great book.   June 9, 2008
Very good practical book on SharePoint. I own several different books on this topic and this one is GREAT!


1 out of 5 stars Examples are not working!   April 3, 2008
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).


2 out of 5 stars Typical Wrox bilge   March 4, 2008
  0 out of 5 found this review helpful

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.
