Summary: Good reading
Review: This is one of the few books on SAP you may actually enjoy reading - it deals with real world scenarios and is told more like a narrative rather than a collection of technical information.

Summary: The best SAP technical implementation book on the market
Review: What I especially like is the thoroughness of this book, it is technical and complete and well organized. George Anderson covers everything I believe is important: sizing, system management, training, high availability options and disaster recovery, testing - all technically descriptive but easy to read. And most sap products are covered (WebAS, EP, BW, PLM, CRM, etc). And I have used the book to help me solve questions with new systems we are putting in, especially chapter 5 on total cost of ownrship studies and how to stress test, and used the operations info in chapter 14 too. If your the guy adminsistering your current or new sap systems or a sap systems manager, you'll want this book.

Summary: This books title is very misleading - keep reading.
Review: When we started on my second SAP installation, one of my first moves was to do an Amazon search on "SAP". I suspected there would be quite a few titles and there are. So far I have read 14 of them including this one. My experience has been that almost everyone wants to write about some piece of the puzzle that they know a lot about. Not George. He tackles the entire process, including how to keep it running well once you are live. To top it off, he is the only person I've met that is actually qualified to speak and write in such a broad manner. This is the one book you need to get started with. It is also the book you need to go live with. At current consulting rates, you can pay for the advice in this book in about 15 minutes. This book really isn't so much about planning as it is surviving and thriving in the eye of the storm. It is by far the best of the 14 books that I have read.
