I reviewed this book for Wrox Press, shortly before they went out of business.
It was not a favorable review; the authors are primarily MS SQL Server
engineers and cross-over some information which is not accurate.   Also, many
of the technical examples in the book contain typos and mistakes.  So I do
NOT recommend this book currently.   Buy Kerry Douglas' book instead.

Somewhat outdated (versionn 7.2) but everything in it is accurate.
