Reader Reviews
Was somewhat disappointed by this book. Expected much more from Syngress. Looks like author was in a great hurry trying to present at least _something_ to cover the exam objectives, piece from here, piece from here, no clear presentation of the information, no vision how the things fit together, etc. The typical note from the author when the things are not clear - "that's enough to pass the exam". About 1/3 of the 700-page book are screendumps - kind of "what you'll see if you'll try to do that", 100-page Glossary - not so much remaining for the real information. However I have to admit that all certification objectives are covered more or less. If you are not new to the thechnology - you can browse this book to become familiar with the objectives and what knowledge from wich areas Microsoft expects from you. Definitely will not recommend this title to anyone who new to security area - the one can get complete mess in his/her head after reading of this title. Looks like that for preparation to the 70-220 exam this title is not the best choice, especially taking into account that this is case-study based exam. Just to add more pepper - the quality of videoclips on CD is not so good. Not sure that anyone checked them at all.
