Summary: Great information but all is online.
Review: I was looking forward to this one coming out terribly but was disappointed on its arrival. This book was basically a reprint of Neil's online FAQs word for word. All the information here can be found on his various websites. The publisher even left the reference information at the bottom of each Q and A that stated "Author : Neil Pike". How redundant! The content in this book is great but the way it was presented was not worth the money.If you want Neil's fantastic FAQs for the road, this is a great book. Otherwise, download the ZIP file and put it on your laptop.

Summary: Good content but horrible index
Review: There was a lot of good and helpful information but the cutesy lowercase, non-spaced titles made navigating the book next to impossible. If you have a lot of time to look things up or plan to read the book cover to cover, it's a good buy. When time is critical however, I won't be turning to this book.

Summary: 10/10
Review: This is an excellent resource to have on your desk. The breadth of topics covered is outstanding, and without the clutter of most titles, or duplication of Books Online we are so familiar with. This is superb for troubleshooting those stubborn and confusing problems, but it is also great to just pick a random page and learn something new without wading through an entire chapter. The majority of the content is from Neil himself, but there are several other contributors who add significant value. Whilst based on the online version, it has been thoroughly technically reviewed and updated making this far superior and well worth the outlay.
