4.0 out of 5 stars "This book covers all aspects of the product", 22 Jan 2007
By B. Mildren (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a multi-author effort and as I've experienced in some previous wrox books there's a slightly bumpy ride because of this, however it doesn't get in the way too much and proves an excellent quick reference guide and would be useful to DBA's of all levels. This book covers all aspects of the product from installation to security to backup/recovery in a good level of detail.. ..in addition it includes good overviews of new features such as the service broker and endpoints. The book includes a few good chapters on monitoring and tuning and for some this would be reason alone to buy the book...
