Title: Well organized but poor explanations for "on the go" use.
Review: Perhaps the biggest short coming of this book is the author's assumption that you will sit down and read the book from cover to cover. He writes each chapter under the assumption that you have just finished the chapter before and completed all prior exercises. Rather than explaining concepts "cold turkey" he references earlier examples and give short, curt explanations for functionality. If you're in the working world and need a quick answer, this is not the book for you. You're better off with another book of even Access help on Microsoft's web site. Although the author clearly knows his material, this book is only best used in a classroom setting and not for real-world reference.
