Desert Queen: The Extraordinary Life of Gertrude Bell: Adventurer, Adviser to Kings, Ally of Lawrence of ...58 reviews
Janet Wallach

Anchor Books, 2005

Illuminating and timely
It's remarkable that a book written about events that took place 100 years ago has direct relevance to today, but that's just one of the many strengths of "Desert Queen." When you read about Gertrude Bell's political savvy about Iraq and the stubborness of the male politicians who ignored her advice, well, the parallels are obvious. The biggest takeaway for me was imagining Bell's life ...

Windows Server 2008 Administrator's Pocket Consultant (Pro - Administrator's Pocket Consultant)6 reviews
William Stanek

Microsoft Press, 2008

Excellent manual for Windows Server 2008
Stanek's books are my go-to resources for learning new technologies. Whenever Microsoft releases a new product I look to see if he has a book on it so when Microsoft finally released Windows Server 2008 I was happy to see he'd written not only one book but two: Windows Server 2008 Administrator's Pocket Consultant and Windows Server 2008 Inside Out. I ordered both and have been using the pocket ... 		  
  







  
  
Waiting for the Barbarians (Penguin Great Books of the 20th Century)76 reviews
J. M. Coetzee

Penguin (Non-Classics), 1999

Timeless and Timely
The Nobel Prize committee has a history of honoring writers with a strong political or social message. WAITING FOR THE BARBARIANS (1980), Coetzee's short, approachable, but devastating fable about the abuse of power, must have played a major part in their decision to award him the prize in 2003. While all his books deal with moral issues, and many (such as DISGRACE of 1999) reflect his experience ...

If You Don't Feed the Teachers They Eat the Students: Guide to Success for Administrators and Teachers (Kids' ...20 reviews
Neila A. Connors

Incentive Publications, 2000

An Educator's Review
I had the honor to see Ms. Connors speak at a teacher conference this past week. I was feeling a bit jaded over the profession of teaching after completing my second year of teaching and after completing a research study proposal on the sad state of teacher retention due to low administrative support. I was at an oh-too-typical low point... Ms. Connors' words (both in spoken and written ... 		  
  







  
  
Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server 2007 Administrator's Companion16 reviews
Bill English, The Microsoft SharePoint Community Experts

Microsoft Press, 2007

Essentially the "Bible"
The sheer amount of information presented in this volume is impressive in and of itself. The depth and quality of coverage into the many topics varies, and there's no one topic covered in totality, but this is the "one" book. English et al. nailed coverage across topics i.e. in scope and breadth. This is certainly not the book for beginners; there is a degree of basic SharePoint knowledge ... 		  
  







  
  
Apache Cookbook: Solutions and Examples for Apache Administrators13 reviews
Rich Bowen, Ken Coar

O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2008

Great Apache Resource
Some of the reviews for 'Apache Cookbook: Solutions and Examples for Apache Administrators' have stated that this book is a little too basic and simple for Apache administrators out in the world, but I would disagree. Apache is a solid technology that has proven it's mettle in the world for many many many years but there aren't a whole lot of books out on the market for it. It is of this ...

Henrik Walther

Syngress, 2007

Best Installation Guide
Having worked with Exchange since 5.0 I have read many installation guides and administrator's handbooks and I would rate this one as the best. I acquired this book after teaching how to configure and install Exchange 2007 to corporate clients and I have since done away with delivering them my own notes and simply recommend that they purchase this book. It is the ultimate guide to installing ...

Great Guide For Desktop Support Staff
This book is good for Support Staff working with Windows XP Professional systems and MS Server 2003, assuming that you have basic Windows and networking skills already, don't look for chapters on installing Windows and it's architecture here.

Case Managers Study Guide1 review
Fattorusso

Jones and Bartlett Publishers, 2007

Case Managers Study Guide
I have not taken the CCM test yet, but I bought the book in hope that it would help with a passing score. The book does have some good questions that I believe will help. I did have some technical problems with the CD, but finally cleared up the confusion and has been extremely helpful. 		  
  







  
  
Executor's Guide: Settling a Loved One's Estate or Trust15 reviews
Mary Randolph

NOLO, 2008

Get this book before you must have it
As with other Nolo books that I have read, The Executor's Guide is very well organized and well written in "plain English". The index is useful to use the book as a reference. The book is specific for what to do and the types of issues you'll face after someone close to you passes away. Not only is it a great handbook for the estate's executor, but this book will be very useful to spouses, ... 		  
  







  
  
Internet Information Services (IIS) 7.0 Administrator's Pocket Consultant4 reviews
William R. Stanek

Microsoft Press, 2007

A must have for IIS 7
I've had IIS 7 Administrator's Pocket Consultant for several months now. I've read it cover to cover and refer to it all the time. I'm always amazed at how much information William can pack into his pocket consultants and especially with this one. William starts out by telling you IIS 7 is completely different from its predecessors and then showing what you need to know right away to be ... 		  
  







  
  
Microsoft SQL Server(TM) 2005 Administrator's Pocket Consultant (Pro-Administrator's Pocket Consultant)19 reviews
William R. Stanek

Microsoft Press, 2005

EXCELLENT BOOK FOR ADMINISTRATORS AND DEVELOPERS
Sometimes when I read reviews people have written I wonder if they've actually read the book or simply thumbed through it in a bookstore or did a search of the pages. This is an excellent book and I've found it to be extremely helpful in setting up and configuring SQL Server 2005. This book isn't meant to be an allinone monster book, its a concise, focused book covering the core of SQL Server ... 		  
  







  
  
Microsoft® Exchange Server 2007 Administrator's Companion, Second Edition1 review
Walter Glenn, Scott Lowe, ...

Microsoft Press, 2008

Review based on Windows PowerShell content
I just finished reviewing this book. I looked at it from the perspective of its Windows PowerShell content as I'm a Microsoft MVP who specializes in PowerShell scripting. PowerShell is becoming more and more important. Under the covers, PowerShell is the basis of all administrative tasks done in the Exchange 2007 Management Console. PowerShell is new and can be intimidating. However, for ...

Orin Thomas, Dan Holme, ...

Microsoft Press, 2008

A well written exam guide, and a good reference as well
I'm just about finished my MCITP: DBA Certification on SQL 2005. So far I've done 70-431, and 70-443. I've been working with SQL Server for a number of years now, and I've recently switched over to a full time DBA position. I read this book in about 2 weeks, and did the exam on the third week. I managed to get 910 on the exam, out of 1000. As 700 is the passing grade, I'm more than satisfied ... 		  
  







  
  
Time Management for System Administrators36 reviews
Thomas Limoncelli

O'Reilly Media, Inc., 2005

This book helped me get my life back
I was skeptical at first, but I followed the advice in this book, and BOY HAS IT MADE A DIFFERENCE! I picked up this book when it first came out, as I was already a fan of The Practice of System and Network Administration. It's been three years, and I'm no longer frazzled. Users no longer call me angrily wondering why I forgot to do such-and-such. I (hardly ever) forget to renew service ...
