Summary: Clearly a very good book
Comment: Even though I have read only the first two chapters so far, I can still say this book is definately worth owning. The amount of information in the introductory chapters alone make this book a worthwhile purchase, especially given its relatively low price. The author's writing style is conversational without being condescending or idiotically simplistic. Reading the book, I feel I have an experienced friend giving me many worthwhile tips and suggestions. I really think you will find this book to be a worthwhile purchase.

Summary: NECESSARY SQL BOOK
Comment: This is an essential book for anyone who works with, or is curious about SQL. This book covers all aspects of SQL from installation to Back Up and restoration scenarios. Covering all flavors of SQL from version 6.5 to current this book is compact and contains an unbelievable amount of knowledge into less than 500 Pages. I could not get over how detailed and clear this book is. After having read many other books on these topics it was truly refreshing to read a technical book that succinctly touched on all aspects of administrating a SQL box.

It was unfortunate to discover that some of what I had thought was good techniques were proved to be flawed, and when after implementing the suggestions in this book I was thrilled to see an increase in efficiency of Data Calls, and Network Load.

It is clear to see that the authors of this book have carefully and clearly defined all that could be needed in a small easy to reference book. This book is a necessity for any desk where SQL Server is running. It is a small cost to pay for so much knowledge, well worth every cent.
