Customer Reviews
Customer Reviews: 1 Average Customer Rating:      Jul 3, 2008     Randy Muller (randy@randymuller.org) from Springfield, Illinois Great study guide and resource! Great study guide and resource!
In many cases, a Self-Paced study guide is mainly useful for preparing for the test and once you have passed the test, the book becomes a dust collector. This is not case with this book. The authors have done a fantastic job of not only covering the exam objectives, but have also written a book you will find very useful as a reference source and for providing real-world guidance as well.
Many IT books are written by individuals who are obviously subject matter experts, but write in such a convoluted fashion that it is difficult if not tedious to read their book. The authors, in this case, have written an easy to read and follow book. They have done a superlative job of presenting complex subjects in an easy to read manner (try talking about NAP to someone that makes it sound REALLY exciting!).
The book is logically broken down to cover all of the exam objectives in fact a reference chart is included which breaks each chapter and lesson down according to the relevant exam objective. Each chapter gives numerous real-world examples to emphasize the points covered as well as detailed exercises to reinforce the concepts presented. The authors also include numerous references to Microsoft Best Practices a nice touch that will prove beneficial to many.
All in all I would highly recommend this book - not only as a study guide for the 70-647 test, but also as a reference source and even a best practices guide
