This book was purchased in hard copy even though I have access to an Ecopy. It is the exact as we aqre using in class and just as advertised. No torn pages, no markings. I would definitely buy from this seller again.


2 out of 5 stars Proof that Wrox does NOT have editors   February 12, 2010

Computer books are thrown together so carelessly these days. Look at the table of contents for Chapter 8. Almost all of its topics are to be found on page 260... and page 260 barely has any text! I'm astonished at how pitiful the quality control is on this junk!


3 out of 5 stars SQL Server easy   October 15, 2009
Julio Cesar Lopez Davila (México D.F.)
Although the book is good, the author uses everyday language frequently, which hinders the understanding of readers from countries where English is not spoken as a native language. Also, it ignores the process and the prerequisites for installation.


5 out of 5 stars A great beginner book   April 11, 2009

This is a great beginner's book on T-SQL programming. I like the Author's writing style and comprehensive coverage of all the topics including Reporting, XML, Integration Services, UDFs, and even some Administration tasks. The stored procedure chapter could have been made into two chapters. Also, I was surprised why more examples were not given for the Try/Catch error. Similarly, there was not much to go with the SSIS. Looks like most of the typos in the book were removed since the 2005 publication. Overall, a great book to get one started.
