Customer Reviews for: Real World SharePoint 2007: Indispensable Experiences From 16 MOSS and WSS MVPs

  

Rating 2 out of 5 - Typical Wrox bilge
Wrox books have become predictably bad and this one is no exception. It is filled with non-working, hard to follow examples and incomplete information. Unless you want everyone in your organization using Visual Studio to post their Word documents, this book is not for you. The section on creating webparts does not work and it contains DEAD LINKS to on-line sites. Ouch! Did anyone edit this thing?

Being written by multiple authors also does not help. The book lacks a continuous voice and each section is written with a different focus. The book should be retitled "Random, Incoherent Musing Over SharePoint" as that is what it is.
Rating 5 out of 5 - Great resource for developers and architects!
This book is a definite must have for SharePoint solution architects and developers. What makes this particular book stand out is the real world experience that you'll find documented from SharePoint MVP's. It's been one of the most useful books in my book shelf.

As a SharePoint consultant, it's very useful to know what methods leading SharePoint experts such as Andrew Connell and Jan Tielens are using to develop solid, and robust SharePoint solutions. This books helps a great deal with that!
Rating 4 out of 5 - Solid...
Some of the chapters in this book go into great depth with the presentation of truly new ideas (e.g. an excellent strategy on site publishing by Andrew Connell) while other chapters are closer to re-hashes of material you can find in how-to guides, with too much attention given to basics. I'd concede that it's hard to strike a balance (and that I greatly appreciated the 101 breakdown of CSS in the chapter on branding). All in all a solid effort and you can be sure that these folks know from personal experience of what they write.
Rating 4 out of 5 - To be recommended
Good book. Authors do know the subject by heart. The good aspect about the book is that each chapter is written by THE expert.
