Summary: Weak on installation but will make a great reference
Comment: The 1st third of this book is basically just the Project Server ReadMe file. I'm left wondering in the author wrote the ReadMe or was simply inspired by it º
The rest of the book contains some useful information on how Project Server functions under-the-hood, including some very useful VBA scripting examples and an excellent overview of the Project Server SQL database structure. The database overview comes complete with the naming conventions employed to develop the database, data types for important table fields, a short description of the purpose of the field, and Visio-style relational table diagrams of the database structure.
VBA and database development definitely seem to be Qimao Zhang's forte. Although weak in the setup and installation section, this book will make an excellent reference once Project Server is installed and end users begin pushing for customizations and tweaks.

Summary: If I had only read the reviews...
Comment: OK, so I should have looked further. This book is terrible. Most of the text can be found in the Microsoft documentation, which is disorganized and incomplte. All this book did was to put the documentation in order. If you really need some help, try Gary Chefetz' book.

Summary: Don't waste your money
Comment: I've seen enough negative reviews on this book that it should have been enough for me, but I bought the book anyway. Most of what's covered in the book is available on the install CD, or at MS's Knowledge Base. I had trouble with all of the configuration and communication between PWA, Sharepoint, and IIS - how to set these up, what to do to make them communicate, what some of the basic error messages mean and how to resolve them. None of that was in the book. Everything else the book covers is either self-explanatory (in the software), or on the CD. This book is a complete waste of money.
