Good as textbook, not so good as exam prep
There are two phases to preparing for an exam: learning the basic material first and getting an overall picture of the subject, then intense review. I would recommend this book only for the first phase. I would use Exam Cram or something else for the intense review phase. This book appears to have been written as a textbook and looks like it would actually make a pretty good textbook. It has case studies which might be good for thinking through how NT actually would be integrated into an enterprise, and I saw only a few errors. I did not read all the case studies though. I felt one study did not teach good practices; the "right" answer called for creating a peer network of 40 workstations, which is twice the maximum size I've seen recommended anywhere else.

Kind of hard because it's so detailed.
It's a good book. Only thing I don't like about this book is it doesn't have answers for review questions. This book will be good for somebody tracking an MCSE course and tired of Sybex's.
