Negative Positive
Title: A wolf in sheep's clothing
Review: Well, I'm disappointed. I'm new to Perforce and found Perforce's documentation a bit unwieldy so I thought this book would help. I was wrong. What I was *hoping* this book would do was to provide a tutorial on getting set up and started, then serve as a reference on how to do at least some of the common things that you'd frequently need to do. Unfortunately, the book doesn't help with any of that.The book isn't organized so as to be useful as a reference, and it doesn't really offer much (if any) help on how to get started. Instead the book spends most of its space on discussions on advanced topics (branching, merging, automated builds, and so forth). It also focuses mainly on the command-line interface rather than the GUI.I'm sure this book is useful for some, but it sure wasn't what I was looking for.
