Two thumbs up!


Reviewed by Paul Glassbrenner

I found the book to be an easy read - containing insightful solutions to practical everyday problems that DBA or Developer may encounter. This book review was submitted by a Roanoke Valley SQL Server Users Group member as part of the Book Review Program. The solutions or recipes, as the author calls them, are well written. He explains, for example, what each SQL Server function will do and how and why it works. The author also goes into detail on Indexing, Triggers, and Stored Procedures, and frankly after reading this book, it has improved my usage of them. This is a book that will make a great reference book for anyone just beginning or with advanced experience in Microsoft SQL Server 2005. I would give this book two thumbs up!

No BS type of book
There is a lot of information in this book
and it is incredible that the author makes it so easy to go through unlike some of the other books. This book is a very good book for updating skills from sql server 2000 to 2005. This should be
everyones first sql server 2005 since it tackles alot of
new features with working examples. There is very little
bad I can say about this and probably a while before another good book like this will come out.
This book covers not only tsql but new features as well as
the major sql server 2005administrative techniques.
It also coveres some reporting.
You still need a book for ssis, sql assembiles ,udf, reporting, olap.

Good Book
. This book is very useful, collecting many important T-SQL in all directions in one volume with clear explanations for SS 2005, Highly recommended.
